Today we viewed extracts from two films, "Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix" and "Misdirection", we were told to take into account the methods of filming and editing used in each extract and to apply it to our own work.
The Harry Potter sequence provided me with some interesting ideas that I can potentially use in my coursework for example; the tracking shots and hand held camera effect, these gave the feel of realism and would definitely be something that I would like to recreate in my own work.
The way that the opening sequence was shot, with a wide angle lense to show a lot of the back ground, emphasised how isolated Harry is and our coursework, which essentailly focuses on one persons isolation from the world, could benefit from using similar effects. The dream sequence is shown with different music and contrasted shots. This gives the effect of a dream.
"Misdirection" was slightly more experimental through shots and editing, so this gave us a better understanding of what sort of techniques our piece will need. Emily
