On Shoot Evidence

This is a picture we took on the day of the shoot as evidence of me recording the scene.

Wednesday 13th

This was my second big session of editing the foley, firstly I recorded some vocals so I could dub over my video, I then went though the clip carefully making sure I had matched up all the sounds accordingly. I also tried to sort out some of the sounds to make it sound more realistic.

5th February 2013

This is a screen shot of me adding in the foley for our edit. I was assigned the role of foley which means I have to go through the sequence and find sounds that are appropriate and fit in with the clips. I then had to edit the sounds making the shorter, longer, louder or quieter. One thing I have learnt today is that not all the sounds I need are available and I will need to record some of them.

My Evaluation

Individual Rough Edit

This is a rough edit of our groups final piece, I done this on my own we will later do it as a group. This does not have any foley or colour grading. below is a image of me editing the shots together.

How is Sexuality used to create Drama in the Sequence

 In the clips of Sherlock, when you first see Moriarty he plays of the stereotypes of being Gay, for example his voice is quite soft and feminine and something Sherlock states that he has very good hygiene and is worried about his appearance (he tints his eyebrows). Also when he is standing next to the of women their stance is very similar, it also makes him seem very shy cause he's almost got his arms crossed and playing with his hands and trying to avoid looking at him as if he has a crush on him. At one point Moriarty knocks over something which makes him seem quite clumsy which is something you would stereotype with a women which also makes him seem feminine and gay. Sherlock asserts his masculinity straight away as he does not get up or even look at Moriarty when he enters, when Sherlock does eventually look at him he says "Gay" and looks away as if to put him in his place. In the 'Thats what people do' clip  you find out that Moriarty is not actually gay that he put it on, but even though you find this out Sherlock still appears to be more masculine as he is pointing a gun at him, but Moriarty shouts at Sherlock to maybe try and intimidate him and make him seem more masculine. From then on in the clips it seems to be a silent battle to assert the masculinity and become the 'Alpha Male' for example many red dots appear on Sherlock presumably from guns, this in a way shows that Moriarty is in charge as he is in control of Sherlocks life at that point. Even though that is going on Sherlock remains calm as if it doesn't bother him that he could die making him seem very manly. Even though Moriarty stated that he was not gay, when his phone goes off at the end of the clip you are led to believe otherwise as it is considered a 'gay' song.
