MIDTERM PAPER
Although many people say that the movie throne of blood is like macbeth I wouldn't know that. The elements were more realistic than stylish.The choreagraphy took a more realistic side. I was not able to identify an Noh theatre elements. I was not ble to identify any sound elements. I could not find any Macbeth elements

Vertigo
Since I have been told that this and Rear Window were contemporary at their times of creation I will avoid making the same error twice. The error was saying that the movie feels like the time era it was filmed in. The camera seemed to only focus on the speaker whenever there was a conversation. Whenever there is dramatic music is played and the main character experiences vertigo you know that the story is about to be moved forward. The actors all seem to be wearing clothing for their location. Although all of the set are placed inside of the city there are many different places. Panning only seems to be used when someone is looking around.

Hero

Hero had two kinds of sets. Nature and City. By using many sets witinh these two categories the viewer understands the great distances traveled by the character in the movie. The movie uses so many special effects that it is best to forget about reality when watching it to fully enjoy it. For example when a woman uses a SILK scarf to deflect STONE piercing arrows that must be flying at 90+ Mph. Luckily the realistic sounds help you to believe what is happening. The direction had the story moving forward whenever someone started explaining something or when someone was defeated in battle or when the battle was over.

Mojave Mirage

The lighting covered every time of the natural day. It was interesting to watch the time lapse of the phone booth and all of the different people who went to it at different times. It seems to be a standard in documentaries to not use special effects because I have yet to see some be used in one. The only set shown was the desert area with the phone booth and later its grave site. The story just randomly moved around with people talking on the phone and then ended with the phone booth being removed. The camera always seemed to have the phone booth in the scene it was shooting. I am assuming that since the people are from many different regions anyways that costumes were unnnecesary.

Family Matters

The movie was probably in black and white to reduce the violent nature of the
different crime scenes. The lack of special effects was most likely caused by the
graphic nature of the dead bodies at the crime scenes. The story moved forward whenever
the two main people had finished talking. Most of the sets were residential areas set inside of one city. The lighting consisted of bright or sunlit areas. The camera seemed to focus on both people whenever one was talking or on the victim when at one of the various crime scenes and then moved back to the speaker when they started to explain what had happened.

An Inconvenient Truth
The only costume that I saw worn was the suit worn by Al Gore. The set seemed like the usual type of scene that someone would use when presenting informaton to people. The direction seemed to be done by Al Gore. The cameras focused mainly on Al Gore. That is my critique for an inconvenient truth.

The Sunshine Hotel
The direction the Sunshine Hotel takes is a strange one. 3 very different views of the residents are used. The hardworking man had bright colored scenes while the transvestite's life was generally viewed as dark. The old man was shown as just another piece in the clockwork of society. I do not think that any of the people were wearing costumes and the set was a an apartment building in an urban city. Since it was a documentary it did not require any special effects.

Visions of Light
The camera focused mainly on the the pople who were talking. I did not notice any special costumes. All of the people who were talking were wearing clothes that most people would wear in casual situations. The lighting seemed to be low most of the time. I think that was because the director probably wants people to focus on what the people are saying instead of what they look like. i did not notice any special effect unless the scenes in black and white were meant to be like that. The sound was kind of low and required focusing to clearly understand what was being said.
