Genre Research: Comedy

The common camera angles used in the comedy genre are wide angle, zoom, medium shot, long shot, tracking shot, close-up, medium close-up, and two/three shots.

Common costumes, lighting, makeup, props, and sets used in the comedy genre are high-key lightening helps create a cheerful mood, casual clothing, simple make-up or extreme (depending on the comedy), acting is dramatic uses humor, has set in a different location and uses props it varies what they are between the storyline.

Common editing in the comedy genre is the fade-in transition, fade-out transition, insert, shot/reverse shot, action match, and eye-line match.

Examples of comedy films are Elf, Christmas with the Kranks, The Out-Laws, and Puppy Love.

Elements of the genre I like is the acting. The acting is fun to watch because it makes me laugh and is entertaining to watch.

Elements of the genre that did not appeal to me was the editing. Comedies have a lot of different angles used which can be overwhelming and a little too much for the viewers.

To do this I clicked on the audio of the scene where she was talking and there was an option to increase the volume so, I just adjusted the volume to higher to make su...

Production Blog choosing the app, importing photos, and music

The first thing I did was look for an editing app. There were many to choose from so, this process took a while. Many of them looked hard to use. I asked my teacher which one and she recommended capcut. I never used capcut before so, it was an interesting experience. When I got into the app it was a little bit confusing. I figured it out and made a project on there. I named it "AICE Media Studies All About Me commercial." I chose the videos and the photos I already planned to use. I needed to add the music. This was hard for me because I didn't know how to get the music. I asked my sister and she told me I had to download it. I downloaded both of my songs and imported them into capcut. I started to work on cutting my videos to show the parts I wanted to use. I did this for all of my videos because most of them were too long and...
