Experimental Film


What we covered in this week is about experimental film that is also called avant-garde cinema. Experimental film usually re-evaluates cinematic conventions and explain the subject bu using different kinds of approach to display audience. Experimental films are usually made cheaply with low budgets. Generally, experimental film doesn’t reach many people and these kinds of films are not having a broad influence on people. Additionally, these kinds of films explain the subject in a different approach and it makes many time to understand hard. It contains so much metaphoric meanings/things and sometimes it is getting hard to follow narrative of the film. However, experimental film makes people to think and understand. Even if it is hard to understand, most of the time it is subjective. There are no one truth. What you understand or what you get in the idea, it is true for your perspective. It is different, unique. People experience what they haven’t been traditionally explored before. Movie makers do not have to obey the general rules while creating a experimental film because now they are more free. They convey their ideas without put in  themselves in a traditional rules. They can break the classic narrative styles and use their own styles for examples using different kinds of camera angles, lighting, colors, different metaphoric objects etc.  In this week, now we made a experimental film about “proud” and we have a chance to think more broad. Then, we decided to convey an idea by using basic shapes because it makes more abstract our topic and we thought that we can explain different ideas by using these shapes more easily rather than normal images or videos. Therefore, we create different chapter about “proud” and used circle in a metaphorically way( circle represent person) so every circles have its own “proud story”.

Lighting

Resim
In this week, we learned knowledge about lightening which is one of the most important aspects in the movie, video clip, photography etc. Light changes everything in shot, depends on angles, it can give emotional atmosphere or dark feeling or give any emotions. There are many types of light technique that gives have a chance to reach any of feeling in the video or photograph. In the lighting workshop, while we were creating the set, the most I like is that using red, green and blue colours in the photographs. I like creating silhouette and low key lighting. It was enjoyable class hours to spend our time because studio gives us to understand more about lighting compare to the classical powerpoint lecture.   Lighting is everything because in the movie or video clip, even if your framings, sounds are good, when your lighting is not matching with the idea of what you want to give message of this shot, your whole work could be in trash. Therefore, lighting setting is...

Tabula Rosa

Resim
Tabula Rosa is directed by Hatice Memiş and written by Gülin Tokat in 2016. The movie is about one day, Sinan rescues a woman while she is walking in the street. A woman carries a bag full of money. However, she doesn’t remember her name and also the source of the money because of temporary memory loss. The unexpected love between them brings lots of difficulties. The story is mainly about Armenian lawyer Rosa who lost her memory as a result of a trauma. In that film, first I want to talk about the script. The movie of the story is powerful because the way Gülin Tokat tells the story is successful to reach the idea of “don’t judge people because of their different religions”. Rosa doesn’t remember where she comes from. She meets with Sinan. Sinan trust her even if she has a bag full of money. He believes that she doesn’t do anything about illegal. Day by day, their relationship bond gets stronger but they also afraid of the truth. While I was watching this film, I also curious about ...

Alice in Wonderland - Adaptation

Resim
Alice in Wonderland is written by Lewis Carroll in 1865. The book is about a girl named Alice falling through a hole into a fantasy world and what she face with different creatures in that place. Even if Lewis Carroll created book for children also adults are interested in this tale. He didn’t know how his story become so popular for many years later. Now, his story have been the subject of adaptations and also they have been transformed into new forms of media. In the story, it has so much imaginative characters, they can talks, sings etc. so, this absurd nature of Wonderland also gives the producers and film making sectors to present their imagination in a unique ways. When I was a child, I watched cartoon version of this story and I enjoyed it because the story itself has broad imagination.  Walt Disney Pictures presented the movie by Tim Burton. Tim Burton has a characteristic style in his whole films and I really curious about before the fil...
