What is your research question?
I want to look at explore how camera technic and editing are use and enhance visual comic effects.
Research aim(s):
What are the overall aims of the project?
Trying to research what kinds of camera technic and editing are the most effective to enhance the visual comic effects.
Research objectives(s):
What are the specific tangible project objectives?
Note: these are separate to what you personally need to learn in terms of skills and knowledge, see learning objectives below.
The project objectives will find out what kind of camera technic and editing methods can enhance visual comic effects. So that I will look for different shooting methods and editing methods which can enhance comic effects in films, advertisements, and short videos. For example, sometimes, using zoom, dolly in/out, slow-motion or quick motion can enhance visual comic effects. In terms of editing, what kinds of editing methods can enhance visual comic effects. For example, fast-paced editing can increase tension and then produce comic relief. However, these research acknowledge sound.
Rationale
· What is the wider context of your project?
· The generation of comic effects need a wonderful script, performance of actors, lighting, and sound, while better camera technic and editing also can help the film to enhance comic effects because they play an important role on visual effect.
·
· How does the project relate to your previous experience/practice?
· I learned drama previously, so I was interested in how create comic effects by different methods.
·
· How does it relate to relevant current practices, debates and theory?
· Some camera tschnic and editing cannot greatly enhance the film’s comic effects due to camera work and editing that are not quite effective.
·
· Why is the intended research significant? (So what?)
· This is because different shots and editing can produce different visual effects. However, the comic effects are more difficult to make. In general, comic effects use performance of actors, good scripts and sound to make. Thus, researching how use shots and editing to enhance comic effects are quite important.
·
· How does this project relate to your plans for the future?
I want to make comedy film in the future.
