The document analyzes the film techniques used in the short film "Screen Kiss" (2013). It notes that the film starts with bright, happy colors that quickly change to darker, more dull colors, suggesting how dull real life can be compared to films. A handheld camera is used for documentary-style shots to make the documentary feel realistic. Fast edits are used to show snapshots of the characters' lives, skipping over boring parts to tell their story like they are. Diegetic wind sounds during documentary scenes further enhance the realism and idea that it was filmed quickly with a handheld camera.
Screen kiss Analysis
- 1. Screen Kiss (2013) Steven Sanders Steven Sanders By Holly Hosler-White
- 2. Mise-en-Scene In the first shot we see a very bright and happy colour scheme, only to change very quickly to a darker more boring colour scheme. I feel this suggests how dull real life can be compared to the excitement of what we see in films.
- 3. Camera A hand held camera is used when we see shots in the documentary style. This is to make the documentary style more realistic and believable.
- 4. Editing Relatively fast edits are used to show the characters lives in quick succession and show the snapshots of the characters lives, as if theyre telling us a story, their lives without the boring parts.
- 5. Sound Digetic sounds of the wind during the documentary scenes create, again, the idea of a documentary, making it believable and realistic. The sound in the background makes it sound as if it was filmed on a hand held camera and a small amount of time was spent on the editing.
