A-level research post #2

Welcome back Cambridge! Let's continue exploring and researching about documentaries that pertain to my chosen genre!

(In Vogue: The 90s, 2024)



The next documentary I research is called "In Vouge ", released in 2024 on Hulu and Disney Plus (In Vogue: The 90s, 2024). This documentary further explores the deep-rooted history of the well-known fashion industry throughout the 1990's  (In Vogue: The 90s, 2024). But specifically, puts it through the perspective of 5 incredible Vogue editors  (In Vogue: The 90s, 2024).. Throughout each episode, you get a different perspective of these icons and what rally went behind the screens while becoming the worlds top fashion magazine during this time. This is shown through the duration of 6 episodes  (In Vogue: The 90s, 2024).

On a technical note, I really enjoyed the variety of shots and angles that was used to capture different angles of each subject (Hulu, 2024) . As well as the up-beat and fast paced choice of music to overall commit to the main theme of the desired brand which is something I want to achieve in my piece (Hulu, 2024). The various interviewee's was a nice touch considering how niche this topic is (Hulu, 2024). On that note, I enjoyed the dramatic effects and technical elements that contribute to this piece. 


 (Dark Side of the 2000s, 2022)


  Moreover, the next documentary  " Dark Side of the 2000s", released in 2023 examines the untold histories during the 2000s decade (Dark Side of the 2000s, 2022). This documentary reviews a personal insight for people who were there when these terrible events happened within society and pop culture for the duration of 10 episodes (Dark Side of the 2000s, 2022)..  Specifically, showing how popular cultural has affected celebrities and people apart of the industry (Dark Side of the 2000s, 2022).Technically, I really enjoyed how the trailer used historical b-roll footage to add additional context (VICE TV, 2023) . The use of saturation and lighting effects contributes to the overall feel of this documentary which is something I want to engage in (VICE TV, 2023). Finally, the use of various perspectives throughout the documentary to show a broader perspective and provide important context (VICE TV, 2023).

Blog Posting- Sound

  Blog Posting Sound Project 10/10/24  Project Link: soundscape_HernandezLee_Per7 In class we learned about the use of sound and how it is so important with film. Many film genres for example, like horror, would not give you the same feeling without the use of sound. We took notes in class about sound illusion, diegetic, non-diegetic and voiceover sounds and many more. We went in depth about the use of foley art. Foley is a type of sound that is in sync with a picture or video.    We were asked to create a 1–2-minute video of sound that we would have to edit, and layer with multiple sounds with the help of websites that were provided to us. We also had to incorporate 4 foley sounds of our own and document them into a separate file. No video is allowed.    My partner and I had an initial idea of a completely different story, and we decided to switch it up. We searched for sounds that would make the most sense and sound realistic. Once we produced a new s...

Production Post- obstacles February 25th, 2025

February 25th , 2025 For this week's blogging, one of the tasks we were asked to complete is to create 3   production posts of our c hoice. I have decided to create this post about some obstacles that I face during my planning process of my portfolio project. I feel as if it is important to incorporate some obstacles to create a sense of realism when creating a film.   So, one of the obstacles I have faced is the location of my film opening. In my script , one of the locations I was supposed to film at which is the *home garage* I am not able to film there because of the extensive time it would take my actors to change locations, I had previously planned to shoot on separate days to give myself more time but an unexpected change occurred. How do I plan to fix that issue you may ask? Well first I want to shoot everything on the same day, so I have the footage and get to editing as soon as possible. I will also have to al ter the script to best suit my actors. ...
