                                                                            The Smile

Each joke video was drastically different due to the approach of the directors on each production in the group. Richard was scripted very well and has lots of potential, yet the quality of the characters and shots were not done in a well mannered cinematic technique. The line usage in Richard is particularly unseen by the viewer because of the OTS camera blocks most of how the female character's emotions are portraying throughout the seen. In the smile much of the line usage is prominent in each shot, as an example; when the character on the left takes a sip of the red koolaid, the lines behind her are all leading towards the koolaid and her head which is focused on in the ECU. The objective of both videos was to put blame on the innocent by the trickster who in actuality was at fault, yet subjectively  the character at fault was only trying to get out of the situation.
The rhythm of each of the videos took vastly different approaches as in establishing shots and two shots that were more focused on. The contrast in Richard was the OTS that gave a sort of ambiguous emotion towards in the females character because much of her face could not be seen in the OTS. The affinity is very pragmatic and from the perspective of the characters eyes, each character had their own OTS. The smile created more of a third person point of view because of the wide shots that were used. The rhythm was kept at a slow pace with a slower dialogue than Richard yet it is simple and gave more emotion and less confusion in the beat. In conclusion I find that The Smile is the more appealing video because it has more flow with the plot and characters which are easily understood, yet richard was more ethical and realistic because of the age of the characters. The line rhythm in Richard was weak and very limited because of the large background the cinematographer was dealing with. In contrast, The Smile kept the beat simple by having a white background where the characters and lines were used successfully in the encapsulation of each shot of the joke.

From a my Visual Perspective (5a)

                     












Salvador Dali creates a world of imagination in the "Metamorphosis of Narcissus" which uses extravagant visual linear intensity throughout the piece. The extremities of visual intensity is used through color, lines, shadows, and shapes. The most dominant visual perspective are the shadows that lie on each shape and the ground. It confuses the person who is examining the art work because through the shadows there are also descriptive curvilinear lines that affect the meaning of the art work. Why I choose the reframed shot of the hand holding the egg because the shapes, lines and color are darker, less perspective and detail goes unnoticed because of the bright vibrant colors and lines which are standing out on the left side of the original frame.
The rule of thirds is used largely in the original frame due to the focus on the top left of the framing. The WS generates a retrospect from left to right using the visual space of the lines and colors. The colors run from bright to dark which tends to give the picture more emotion and depth. The tone of the reframed photo gives takes away from the rhythmic movement because the original frames objective was to create a tonal rhythm which causes the artists approach to lose the objective of happy and sad emotions. I have pointed out the subjective visual movement by reframing the left side of the original piece. I point out the subjective view by reframing the stone hand as a third of the frame and show that the lines perceived on the left side take away from the dark and dreary side of the reframed picture.
Dali enforces the bright and dark sides of the frame by colors and shapes of objects through depth cues. As he creates the realm of a dark and bright side, much of the confusion created are by the how the lines are perceived behind the hands that Dali created. Lines run very far until they cannot be seen by the viewer which makes the hands look as if the dark hand is placed closer than the bright yellow sculpture.
