Analysis of the film review of "Alive" from the perspective of audio-visual language

Writing ideas:

Who stars in the movie? What is the role played? How was the show?

Who is the main creator? Who are the screenwriters, directors, cinematographers, editors, and production companies? Do they have other works that readers are familiar with?

Do I like this work? Why?

What parts of the work left a deep impression? Why?

Did I capture the main points of the work in my writing? Are there any omissions? Was my description of the film clear and concise?

Do I have any bias against the actors, director and themes presented in the film? If so, why? When giving reasons for bias, be well-founded.

Does my comment hold water? What aspects of the video support my opinion? Is there any other material that can prove my point?

What do I most want to tell readers? Did I express it clearly in my review?

If you want to be more professional, you can analyze it from several angles:

(1) First look at the light, how the light is used in each lens, next Are there any changes in the light from the lens, are there any changes in projection, are there changes in night and day, are there cloudy days or raining; (2) Are there changes in the size of the space, whether there are large rooms or small rooms, are there any changes between indoors and outdoors? ; (3) Listen to the sound, whether it is the same period or later, whether there is a sound space shown in each shot, what it is like, and how the sense of sound space changes in the next shot; (4) What is the background, and what is the sound space? What is the relationship between the foreground and how it changes (this is the perspective relationship); (5) Is there any movement? Is the subject in the picture moving or the camera moving? Is there more horizontal movement (left and right movement) or depth? Exercise a lot. (6) Whether the zoom is used, whether it accurately expresses the relationship between the two characters, or creates a wrong relationship, whether the zoom is used a lot, and whether the panning of the camera adds new information or meaning; (7) Pay attention to the movement The relationship between movement and stillness is that there is movement in the foreground but not in the background, or there is movement in the background but not in the foreground, or there is both front and rear backgrounds, or there is no front and rear backgrounds; (8) Where is the editing point, and how does the picture start? Like, what does the falling frame look like? If it is a person running, pay attention to whether the body shape of the rising frame is good or not. What is the difference when you look at it? Do you use more switching or dissolving more? (9) What is the arrangement of the characters in a shot? Is there any stage processing of the fourth wall (that is, all the people in the shot are lined up in a row facing the camera, just like sitting in rows in a kindergarten, eating fruit) .) The actor's individual performance also strives to face the fourth wall? (10) Where is the music used? Is there a theme song and does it have any effect? The relationship between music and character movements (or performances), the relationship between music and camera movement, the relationship between music and color changes, the relationship between music and the mood and rhythm of dialogue, the relationship between music and natural sounds (i.e. noise), etc. (11) If it is a feature film, what method is used to express the turning point of the plot? Is it a narration or a silent passage? If it were you, could you express this passage silently? (12) The relationship between the characters on the screen has changed, whether it has changed or not. For example, he has always stood on the right of B in the whole shot, and has never gone to the left of B, etc.; (13) Is the dialogue written in a life-like way? , or a stage accent, smooth? (14) What color clothes are worn by the characters in each shot, and what is the relationship between them, that is, whether there is color scheduling, that is, used as flowing colors; (15) The role of props in the era, region, and nation , Is it culturally accurate? (16) Is flashback used in time? What method is used to express it? Is it reasonable? (17) Use a long lens? How long is the longest shot? Does it feel long to you or not as long as it actually is? What is the relationship between the characters in this long shot? All within the frame, or one within the frame and one outside the frame (forward/reverse shots do not count). (18) Is the human voice in the order of tenor, soprano, baritone, mezzo-soprano, and bass? (19) Are close-ups used as visual accents in the plot? (20) How is the combination of sound and picture in the whole film? Is there anything particularly exciting about it?

The last thing I want to tell you is that it is impossible to cover all aspects in a film review. Just focus on one or two angles that impress you the most.
