The Script for my Short Film and its Plot

Imagen
This post contains the main idea for the plot a brief summary of it, the plot structure diagram and the script of my short movie provisionally titled: "The Great Exam". SCRIPT: “The Great Exam” by Rubén Cuenca Martínez Synopsis: ADRIAN is a regular 17 years old high school student who messes up a bit with his studying schedules and responsabilities. Throughout the film we can easily put ourselves in the skin of an overwhelmed student who fails to get good marks, just to discover that in the end it is all his fault. However, we see this in a funny way. Scene 1 ADRIAN’s bedroom, 6:00 am. A calendar with an upcoming exam on his desk is clearly seen. ADRIAN: (gets off bed and starts his morning routine). Scene 2 ADRIAN is in his kitchen. 6:00 am – 7:30 am. ADRIAN: (prepares coffee and goes back to his bedroom to start studying, note: Loop this action three times as “mental breaks”). “I wish I had had more time to prepare for this ex...

Camera movements

Here you can see some interesting camera movements used in filming: -          Pan                         -           Dolly in (with zoom)                         -           Dolly out (with zoom)                        

The Rule of Thirds

This is probably the most got-to-know rule or technique in photography because of its simplicity but also effectiveness on improving our pictures. To apply this technique, divide your frame into three parts with two lines, horizontally and vertically alike, so that you get nine equal rectangles that compose your frame. By placing the most relevant objects of your frame at the intersection of those 2x2 lines, or just along these lines, you will considerably improve the quality of your pictures. Below you can see two examples of how to apply this rule on the same frame. The difference is that in one of each pair is not applied correctly.  

My favourite film ever: The Butterfly Effect (2004)

Imagen
The Butterfly Effect (2004) is one out of the two succesful movies for which its guionist and director, Eric Bress, is known. Starring Aston Kutcher and Amy Smart, it narrates the story of a psychology student, Evan, who suffers from a strange mental disease that causes him to black out and loose his memory from time to time. Later on he finds out that his special condition lets him travel in time by bringing old memories from his past back to his head thanks to his diaries. He uses his ‘power’ to change the past and alter the lives of his friends, although Evan will have to face up the several consequencies carried on by his actions. Envolving love, friendship and the situation of Evan himself, the plot of this movie turns out to have a really deep meaning, as well as many different interpretations which are quite interesting to read and analyze. However old this movie might be, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t deserve to be seen. It’s a great movie and I highly recommend watching i...
