Visual Comedy

I came across an amazing director, Edgar Wright, who manipulates the art of editing to create hilarious texts. The use of prominent visual effects in his movies deviate from the comedy genre conventions generally used in other movies. Nonetheless, the style of making and editing the movies is such that the comedic aspect can clearly be recognized. The movies that particularly impressed me were 'Shaun of the death' and 'Scott Pilgrim vs The World'.

Dignity Day Video

Today we celebrated dignity day in our school and being the head of filmmaking society I made a video about it. The video started off with a fun fast-paced soundtrack to create suspense and interest. I added text with a simple question, in the start, to encourage engagement with the audience; which is ironic since this video can be considered a part of hot media (which demands little interaction from the viewer/user).  Two interviews were added to give the video a documentary feel.  A smooth audio transition from the diegetic and non-diegetic sounds of the interviewee and background score respectively to an 'Urdu poetry' was made. The poetry was accompanied by slow-motion shots of students and lower staff members to give a dramatic effect.   https://youtu.be/kzJ9UjASq3c
