Evaluation-what have you learnt from your audience feedback?

Evaluation-Looney Tunes

The humour from 'Looney Tunes' largely comes from the use of sound effects. We wanted this to come across in our short film.

As our short film is a silent movie the humour cannot come from the dialogue, instead it has to come from the quirky facial expressions, the speed of the action and the sound effects, much in the style of Charlie Chaplin.

When watching 'Looney Tunes' the sound effects really added humour and so we took it on ourselves to find/create some sound effects.

Evaluation Main research Charlie Chaplin

This film is what i found when researching into slapstick, black and white, silent movies. We knew that we wanted to show the comedy in both our film and our ancillary tasks.

The camera angles in the Charlie Chaplin films are very front on, this will be one of the conventions of black and white, silent films that we will challange. I feel that it's important to change things such as camera angles and the distance the actors are away from the character to make the film more interesting for the audience.

I found posters of magazine front covers on the internet, this one and the one before were very eye catching, a quality that i know we needed to have with our ancillary tasks.
