RESEARCH: NOWHERE BOY
In my lesson today, I have learned a variety of different uses of camera shots and the meanings behind each one in scenes of the film. Into ten minutes of watching the film there was a lot of emotion and youth portrayed through the relationship of John Lennon and his uncle. It was emotionally strong which was portrayed through happiness through the uncle and John. Their relationship was a great vision of friendship as well as the uncle being a father figure. John Lennon's relationship with his aunt is seemed to be strained which was suggested by some to be serious and assertive who really showed any affection towards John Lennon. For instance, the relationship between John Lennon and his uncle was emotionally strong and this portrayal of happiness between the uncle and John has a much broader relationship, that of a friendship as well as a father figure relationship. In contrast, John Lennon's relationship with his aunt seems to be estranged. John Lennon's aunt was, suggested by some, as a serious and assertive individual. She rarely showed any affection at all for John Lennon.
You need to relate the narrative element (+character and plot) to the technical elements (=camerawork, sound, editing, mise-en-scene). Do you remember how we analysed the effect of situating the carefree, running boy against the classical columns in the opening scene?
ReplyDeleteWhere is your written work on 'Consuming Passions' ?
the teacher asked me to place the work on your desk on tuesdays lesson. It should be on your desk unless it has been moved.
DeleteMr Gladstone I believe his name is asked me to place the work on your desk.
DeleteCan you return to this work and make another attempt at explaining how camerawork creates meanings? For example, how is the closeness between John and his uncle shown? How is John's wildness and rebellion shown?
