Drago is a short film that blends fantasy, adventure, and surrealism, focusing on themes like heroism, myth, and emotional growth. In this genre, common camera techniques include wide shots to showcase expansive landscapes or grand creatures, and close-ups to highlight emotional moments in the protagonist’s journey. Tracking shots follow the action, while low-angle shots are used to emphasize the power of dragons or heroic figures. High-angle shots convey vulnerability, often portraying characters as small within a vast world. The sound in fantasy films like Drago typically includes epic orchestral music to amplify grandeur and diegetic sounds like dragon roars or sword clashes. Non-diegetic sound effects add a layer of magic, and silence is strategically used to heighten tension. Background ambience, like nature sounds, helps immerse the viewer in the fantastical setting. In terms of mis-en-scene, costumes are designed to reflect characters’ roles, with elaborate, adventure-ready at...
Hello! Welcome to my final production blog. I am happy that you’ve been keeping up! Words can’t describe how ecstatic I am that you’ve kept up with my life story. Well, it isn’t really a life story but still. So, today we will dive into which song I’m going to use. That song will be Denzel Curry - X-Wing. Now some may no this song and yes it is school-legal. Uh, well (mostly). So, let’s get on with (X-Wing Cover) Now, I chose this song in particular because it really resonates with me. The lyrics and the visuals. Let’s start with the visuals.

Nothing really flashy except the samurai part (which I love). Anyway, this song will get the main parts of my character across to you. Thank for tuning into my blogs. I hope you a wonderful day! Also, look out for my commercial going up later!
To fulfill my genre of mystery, I need to conduct research of what that truly looks like. This short film is named "Prosopagnosia" created by Hugo Keijzer. A short summary of this film is about a man who suffers from the condition of prosopagnosia. In more simple terms, he does not have the ability to recognize faces. This is a case where his best friend was murdered and all traces point back to him. The sound is simply diegetic with dialogue to evoke a suspenseful feeling. Common Mis-en-Scene I witnessed were the main characters, the setting of the best friend's house, and the interrogation room. The lighting was low only to create that imagined blurred vision from the main character to mimic his condition. The editing consisted of the usual shot reverse shot, over the shoulder, eye-line level, and jump cut. Along my research, I found other example films such as Death on the nile, Rear window, and Psycho. Now I want to dive into the genre elements that I like a...
