Anamatic



Anamatic

Through our anamatic we are hoping to achieve an outlook onto the lifestyle of a young girl.
Part of the story tells of how she lives now, her new life and the setting around her however flashbacks will play into the scenes quite early on giving another view onto how she got there and her persona before she ran away.

Jumper Analysis

Jumper Analysis
The film itself originally seemed to begin as a typical young action film studying the life of an extraordinary boy called David. We decided to analyse this opening sequence as the first few scenes help develop the overall film extremely well and really captivate the audience into watching the rest of the film.

Mise-en-scene
The first image that is brought across to the viewers eyes is David Rice appearing to be relaxed at great height in the centre of Egypt. This could bring across the impression that the rest of the film is set around this area but because of the story line the viewer begins to understand why the settings change rapidly
. Following this scene is a flashback to when David was at 'high school' telling a seperate story of how he became a 'jumper'. The costumes and language from this scene have been purposley outdated to create a realistic effect of when he was younger. The lack of swearing and violence produces a more innocent outlook towards the characters ages and the costumes suggest that they are not old enough to have become very self concious within the high school.


Editing

The editing used within the opening scene is used to make the scene more intense as the change from when David is trapped in the frozen river to when he has 'jumped' to the libary. The editing is used here to make the viewer believe that it is more realistic where all the water is surrounding him once he has 'jumped'. Also in the opening scene, the usual match on action shots are used to make the scene flow with more ease and make it easier to follow.

Sound
There is quite a lot of non-diegetic sound used within the first scene. When it begins, the viewer can see David standing on a land mark but they can also hear what can be interpreted as his thoughts. Also when David falls into the frozen lake, The music builds up and creates more tension for the viewer which helps attract the viewers attention towards the film. Also there is Diegetic sound in the form of dialogue when the characters are relating to each other.

Camerawork
The camerawork is effective as it is shown from different angles such as when he is on
