Preliminary Exercice - LR

1)

WWW: In your opening seconds, your delayed tracking shot works really nicely, creating some space between yourself and the camera before following on. The immediate switch to the shot in the tree is a great change of angle and setting which is both attention-grabbing and creative. Your repeated motif of pointing towards yourself in line with the song is a simple but effective message reinforcing movement which is used to great effect.

Next Steps: I think you could afford to have more contrast between the positive protagonist and the antagonist that we only see a couple of times. This conflict would really drive home the overall message of the video. Remember, this video is about encouraging an improvement within a community, so perhaps some advisory moments encouraging lifestyle changes that could lead to this positive sense of self would be useful. Finally, I think the moving shots were some of your best and therefore having your main protagonist be followed whilst on the move could be a great message emphasiser in terms of following your lead.

WWW: Good creativity, repeated motif

Stranger Things Analysis

Costume:  The boys at the start are wearing casual 1980s clothing which suggest to the audience that the boys are lower class and not professional or serious about their job. This contrasts against the person in a white lab coat and this suggests that he is a professional scientist unlike the boys sitting in a basement playing a board game. The connotations of the white lab coat of the scientist shows that his is looking for perfection and peace which ironical compered to what happens to him Lighting:  In the opening scene, the lighting was turquoise similar to the colour that is often used in hospitals. This shows that the scientist was potentially working on dissecting a animal or being in order to create something but that went wrong and it made the monster that he was running away from.
