Blow Up

Blow up is what I would call a interesting film not because it was bad or good but it was just plain interesting. At first when it began with the cart full of mimes in the jeep. While personally when I saw this I had absolutely no idea where this film was going however for […]

Group 5 Lumiere film

For the most part, I believe that the project over all went really well.   At first, we had a general idea of what we wanted to do and it was interesting over time to see how the entire scene evolved.   Personally I have made films before and not being able to use any cuts, color […]

Coldplay Music Video

For this assignment I decided to do Coldplay’s song Viva La Vida. This video starts out with a rose opening up, and right away the video is heavily color corrected and filtered. The filter that is used almost completely though out the entire video is that of a cracked wall or wrinkled paper. This along […]

In photo number 2 there is a combination of multiple blurs including […]

Sequence review

This week we were asked to review a title sequence and at first I was convinced that I would review the intro to the Colbert Report which is my favorite TV show. But then while looking at some random title sequences online I came across one that I absolutely fell in love with. The opening […]

The book of Eli which wasn’t the best or worst movie of all time was a resounding meh in my book. However, because this is the most recent movie that I have seen and I couldn’t bring myself to do the latest Indiana Jones (cries inside) I decided that this poster was what I was […]
