MODULE 11: Film Noir
Goals: • film grain • interactive light • day-for-night • lens vignette
Assignments: • Assignment 11.1: Dailies. Please post current progress on all shots that you have not yet received a final, including the green screen project (GS01), simple match lighting project (ML01), and the UFO project (UFO01). Post progress for specific shots to the dailies discussion folder for that particular shot. If you are not posting for a specific shot currently in production, explain why.
Discussion: • Discussion 11.1: Examine the frame. Can you spot at least five visual cues that would help you light an object to be placed somewhere on the steps? Consider the nature of the light: is it direct or diffuse? How can you tell? Are there any objects in the frame that bespeak lighting direction? What is the color of the diffuse light? How about the color of the specular light? Does shadow direction tell us anything about the light? Shadow color? Haze? • Discussion 11.2: VFX Sequence of the Week. This week’s VFX pick is from the film Pearl Harbor (2001), directed by Michael Bay, starring Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett and Kate Beckinsale, with post-production effects by Industrial Light and Magic (VFX Supervisor: Eric Brevig). Please watch this clip with instructor commentary and discuss the strengths and weaknesses (if any) of the shot(s) presented.
