Textual analysis - Pulp Fiction

Blog of notes:
  • narrative

  • genre

  • presentation of characters

  • camera angles, shots and movement

  • editing and sequencing

  • lighting, shade and colour

  • sound

  • location and set design

  • genre conventions

  • target audience of the film

  • In the narrative, there had been uses of drugs, and also this gets more involved in with the private life of the main character.
    the characters are outcast from the society, because they are non-normal people.
    Extremme close ups,when they want to show the facial expressions from the drug´s effect. Theres also slow motion from his face being smiling.
    The music is a good component to the situation, overall in the last shot when the character is smiling.
    Theres a good effect of light, when the character is being affected, also when he buys the drugs, both of them are perfectly lighted.
    They are in the poor society, because of the things they sell, also the other characters, with the pirciengs and all that, they show what kind of person´s they are.

    Task 2:
    Convenctions¨ Gangster/crime films are usually set in large, crowded cities, to provide a view of the secret world of the criminal: dark nightclubs or streets with lurid neon signs, fast cars, piles of cash, sleazy bars, contraband, seedy living quarters or rooming houses.¨ This is one of the rules that the convenctions should follow, and in this case, it does, because there are gangsters in this film, also dark night clubs, drugs and crimes, the sell of illegal stuf, like drugs.

    Production Journal.

    Last week, Santos started analysing all the videos, for making the subtitles. This was for remarking all the most important speech from the people which we had interviewed. He remarked the part from all the videos where we had asked the same question for every people, thinking in the future for the editing of the film, also for having one idea. Honorio had visited one police man, in the football fields, where he went on saturday and did a great job. So me and him, had analysed some footage from the video which we thought was important in addition to Santo´s work.
    So in conclusion we have a long way on for making this film, and we are going in the good way to a good fillm.
