Genre Research: Godzilla vs Kong

 

  • Some conventions we saw in Godzilla vs Kong were the use of high angles, and low angles with camera shots that help add to how the character is viewed. It also gave us lots of wide shots, and pan shots to see what is going on in the scene. Lots of diegetic sounds, as well as incidental music give the audience more of a view into the scene. The movie uses a lot of eye-line matches when there is dialogue between characters, as well as reverse shots and action shots. The sets and props are also well designed in the movie to look realistic. 


  • In the movie, we liked how most of the camera angles were used. The low and high angles helped add a dramatic factor to the movie. The use of diegetic sounds gave the audience a better idea of where the movie currently is, for example, the wave sounds used in the scene where the characters were in the ocean. Another aspect of the movie that we liked was the props and sets and how well they were designed. This movie helped give us a lot of ideas of what to do in our opening sequences.  


  • Some aspects that did not appeal to us were how the dialogue took over most of the movie, and how it messed with action shots. Also, how it overused a lot of pan shots in the movie, causing it to become regular. There were also a lot of close-ups in the movie, in places where it did not need to be. The movie was great overall but there could have been more emotional scenes with some of the characters that could add to the plot. While we will not be able to add any CGI to our film, we will use a lot of other concepts in this film that have inspired us.

Final task video

 I'm relieved to finally be done with the video and kind of nervous about what grade I'll get.
