Concept 74 #1

Films that make me cry are stories about losing family members in a tragic accident or war unexpectedly with a good life. Love Stories make me feel happy, Movies about friends makes me want to go hang out with my friends, or if they end out with a bad ending it makes me feel sad..

Concepts 69,70,71,72,73

69 #1. (Spanish) Te Quiero , (french) je t'aime, je suis fou de toi, je ressens un amour fou pour toi , (German) ich liebe dich, ich habe mich in dich verliebt, ich empfinde viel für dich, ich bin dir treu ergeben 


71 #2 I would write about Marilyn Monroe, I would start out talking about something nobody ever knew, her real name and first marriage. 


72 opera: Lindsay was once married to Eric then Milenna got pregnant from him and Lindsay divorced him and moved to Hawaii , in hawaii she met Tom and fell in love. Milenna had her baby in Texas and didnt end up with Eric. Tom and Lindsay went to visit Lindsays parents in Texas, to find out that Tom was Erics faternal brother, and Tom and Erica ended up leaving LIndsay and decided to reunite as brothers. Milenna then found out that Eric implanted something in Milenna to make her pregnant to have Lindsays and Erics baby, so it ended up not being Milenna's baby at all.

Review of Characterization

Concept 16 - Relatable characters give a story an audience 

Concept 17 - Relatable characters come from everywhere. Use people you've met. "passed experiences" 

 Concept 35 -When losing isn't an option - obstacles are good but they have to figure it out eventually

 

Concept 38 -Conflict grows out of a character

 Working with different types of people, your friends are one thing. But when it comes to working in a group with different people things are difficult. Like working on a movie , your stuck in working with people with all kinds of different ideas being shot at. 

Concept 39 - Character grows out of conflict

characters have to evolve with whats happening 

Concept 40 - Way a character surpasses a challenge itself. Hero's Journey

Techniques used from script in movie

Camera is not a camera - looking in the eyes of Jeff
Use humor to add tension - stella says I don't want to see any "part" of her
Warning may cause macguffin: clues for the body
Suspense is information: when the detective says Thorwald is ready to take them on a trip to the East River
Surprise and Twist : when jeff gets hung out the window

Use Humor to add Tension

Dialogue Means Nothing - Use facial expressions, have one character not listening to another, dialogue can be a lie.

Keep the story simple: linear and streamlined, story simple but characters complex

Characters Must Break Cliche: List breaks into apartment (unlikely) Thorvald respectable murderer

Use humor to add tension: Stella is talking about blood being splattered on walls, bacon is being eaten with blood dripping off it.

Two things happening at once:  Two things happening to distract viewers
different things going on in the windows

Suspense is information: dog returning to garden

Surprise and Twist: son is mom in pshyco, rear windwo has moments where thorvald doesn't seem to be murdrer

Warning may cause MacGuffin: Drives story forward ! the thing everybody wants psycho -$40,000

Hitchcock's suspense

Techniques used for Rear Window: 

1) Frame for Emotion 

by facing the camera to the object like the man who "killed" his wife

2) Camera is not a Camera

Following the suspenseful parts everywhere it went

3) Dialogue means nothing

When the main character is sleeping, and stuff happens
