Trailer Analysis: Age of Ultron

                              Trailer Analysis: Marvel Avengers: 
                                          Age of Ultron



1. The trailer is 2:18 mins long and the title of the movie reveals itself at 2:03. This is because the trailer wants the audience to guess what movie this is about.

2. The two most powerful scenes were at 0:25 where the robot head glows because it means something terrifying is going to happen and at 2:03 where a face only showing 2 eyes opens because it looks like this person is new to the Avengers series.

3. Dark, ominous music is played. This music makes the trailer more serious and more epic.

4. The best sound affects were from the robot sounds made in the trailer because the sound seemed so realistic.

5. The voice-over has a very deep and slow voice.  This makes the trailer more serious, more dark, and more catching for the audience.

6. This voice was chosen to make it so the robots were so powerful and almost unstoppable and the Avengers have a challenge to defeat them.

7. The last frame shows the words "May 1" which is probably the release date.

8. The trailer surprisingly made me interested in watching this movie because the trailer made me want to watch more of the Avengers: Age of Ultron. The affects were beautiful and the actors in the movie were all famous.

Trailer Analysis: Jurassic World

                                                     

                                Trailer Analysis: Jurassic World




1. The trailer is 2:30 mins long and the title of the movie reveals itself in 2:16. It is like this because we probably already know what Jurassic Park is.

2. The two most powerful scenes in the trailer were in 1:15 where the guy is eaten by a dinosaur, and in 2:12 where a giant sea monster eats a bird. I remember these 2 because they involve killing something and that is something entertaining.

3. The music being played is dark and ominous which makes it feel like a action/ horror movie.

4. All the dinosaur sounds were great sound affects because my ears believed that a dinosaur actually made that sound.

5. There was not one person doing the voice over but there were multiple voices in the trailer. This makes it feel like every character in the movie plays an important role in the plot.

6. The multiple voices in a trailer was chosen to make the movie more like a hardcore action movie and not like a movie with a detailed story.

7. The last frame has information about watching the movie on a big screen.

8. This trailer did not grab my interest, not because it was a bad trailer, but I just am not interested in dinosaurs.

     
                              Trailer Analysis: Star Wars


1. The trailer is about 2 mins long and the name of the films is revealed at the end. It is revealed at this point of the trailer because we probably already know what Star Wars is.

2. The two most powerful scenes for me was the scene of Darth Vader's helmet, and the scene with Chewbaca and Han Solo. I remember them because they were in the previous Star Wars films.

3. The trailer is playing exciting orchestral music. The music makes the trailer more of an action films.

4. The best sound effects were the explosions in the trailer. The sound effects sounded like a real explosion is occurring.

5. The voice-over is probably a character from the movie which makes us feel excited about who the voice-over actually is.

6. The voice was chosen to emulate a character in the movie talking about the trailer. It makes us think that this character whose talking in the trailer is probably important.

7. The release date of the trailer.

8. The trailer didn't seem to interest me at all because the trailer looked like it didn't have a main villain at all. The scenes didn't make me feel really excited.

The Power of the Edit

   

 Unedited 

Edited

Explanation:

The reason I choose this picture out of all the other was because it featured a man who looked kind of sad which I liked because I wanted more of a sad feeling to the picture I was doing. For the editing, I used the app Iphoto to enhance the picture. While I was editing, I wanted to make the picture really emotional in a sad way and I wanted the area in the picture to look warm and sunny. In the end, I was really satisfied with the edited photo. From the picture, you can see the rule of thirds being used because the main object of the picture, the man, is in the left middle corner which is a spot the rule of thirds advises you to put your objects in. One of the ways I enhanced this picture was that I increased the shadows of the man and a few other objects. I also brightened the photo to make it so the area looks warm and sunny. I finally added some green light in the photo because I wanted the photo to look nature like.

  Photo 1#

This photo uses the rule of thirds in order to highlight the rose in this picture. You can see that the rose is at the top left dot which is what the rule of thirds tells you to do.





 Photo 2#

This photo uses the method of only focusing on one portion of the picture. The only things that are not blurred are the 3 chess pieces which are all focused on. The rest of the picture is blurred. 

  Photo 3#

 









This photo uses masking by putting something on the forefront. The sakura tree is the object that masks the photo while the Eiffel Tower is in the background.



 Photo 4#














This photo shows many lines and curves. The sand dunes  have this very long curve going left which makes the viewer drag his eyes around the pictures.





 Photo 5#









This photo uses interesting curves in order to make the picture more interesting. Instead of taking a photo of the Eiffel Tower from a boring position, this photo is taken with an interesting angles in which you wouldn't find in google images.

Video Review

 

                                                                    Video Review

. How did the graphic designers use things other than words to make us feel certain ways in this video?

The graphic designers used a white background to make the video look very simple. They also used simple shapes like circles and lines and they moved them in a specific pattern in order to give us that open minded feeling. This video also contains sound to make the video interesting for the viewer to watch.

.Identify two things you liked about this video and expand upon why you liked them.

One part of the video I really liked about the video was that the video was very simple. There wasn't much going on and each motion in the video was interesting. Another thing I really liked about the video was the simple shapes the designers used for the video. They only used circles and lines but that really had a lot of meaning to them, to me. I too, liked way the words were put out. The sentences were cut out which made me want to watch more of the video to find out what everything the video was trying to tell me.
