Week3


What is Auteur?
  • Auteur Theory

It is the theory of film making where director is considered a s the main creative force in a motion picture. It started in France in during the late 1940's so then it was later dubbed by Andrew Sarris; an American movie critic.

The role of the Auteur?
This theory insists that the movie is the reflection of the director's artistic vision. therefore the  filmmaker holds a recolonization and a full authority to manipulate the subjective idea or concept of the overall scene. The help to centralize idea while most of them has a strong visual style that audience can recognize the film just seeing a few frame. Film makers like, Spielberg, Fischer, Nolan, Burton Scorsese are an example of Auteur.

Are you an Auteurs?
As being an Auteurs, it helps to put your idea in front. So it gives you an advantage to work according to my needs which can be good in some aspect, making it a solid decision that requires no need of compromising and spend maximum time. With regards to the topic, I would not prefer being an Auteurs because I would like to hear from different individuals, their experience and knowledge, from which we can have a broad spectrum of ideas that would make overall scene, brilliant.
Elaborate you opinion in 100 words.

Do you believe in one single idea/ a person to make a whole change for the movie?
A single man's opinion can lack some potential concept or ideas, which may not be suitable for whole film but there should be someone to lead the main idea, other wise it will be hard to compromise among film creaters. Hence I would say that a person if has a strong knowledge, vitality and has a broad spectrum of thinking capabilities will not harm a whole movie change. 










Hollywood studio of Abel Image research where the computers are used to design a character that has a lifelike characteristic, and moves like waves. I find this very fascinated as the robot appears to be extraordinary and has a contrast to it. It is cleary in focus.  This was a breakthrough in 1984 among filmmakers. these were never done before using computers, every single detail of body parts 18 pieces in total which never existed outside the computer. later 3d model are made with necessary dimension, also can be manipulated, bringing it to life. Director Andy Robert Brut force animation which made motion tracking/ vector graphic/ raster graphic to be applicable for film/ commercial.











Hacksaw Ridge (2016)

Biographical war film made by Mel Gibson. 
Hacksaw Ridge scene where Sergent asks hilarious questions to soldiers and get the responses. I find it quite funny, Some random questions are, "How long have you been dead son?", " I have seen stocks of corn with better physiques.. can you carry your weight?" Here expressions of Sergent is very serious, well carried out. 

Suddenly It's Spring. (1947)
Directed by Mitchel Leisen. The story was created when the end of World War II. The story was set in 1945. The 87 minutes long film starred Paulette Goddard and Fred MacMurray. who play as a military, Movie has a funny conversation between two, plans for divorce but could make it through. But later gets united. while another woman thinks that she had betrothed her husband and a friend of the husband gathers romantic designs on the wife. 

The contrast between these movies is quite different while old movies have fluent speaking speeches/ dialogues but the modern one has slow with a pause and should be intended for modern global cinema.

The one I recently watched was David lynches Dune(1984) American epic science fiction film also has lots of comedic effect scene from Kyle Maclachlan as Paul Atereides, talking to him self especially, saying where are my feelings when his momes stars crying hearing husband's murder. also, there are much funny acts done by Vladimir Harkonnen, a role played by Stellan Skarsgard.



Motion Capture can be defined as the procedure of tracking intricacies of live moving surfaces by a digital camera and later processing this information with the use of computer software. In modern days they are widely used in movies, video games, apps, and many more, as a whole they have a place in military services medical applications, entertainment, etc. 


Uncanny Valley:
As Masahiro Mori, a professor at the Tokyo Institute came up with this title that it resembles the observation that robots appear more like humans alike. With these people feel strangeness, uneasy so they develop a negative reaction to certain lifelike robots. 

In terms of movies, most of the modern movies have crossed beyond the uncanny valley. highly successful movies like lord of the rings, avatar, avenger, Mr. robot, etc have gained massive popularity. The scene when Gollum played a fictional character is so photo-realistic and perfectly blends with the environment. This seems to be a great achievement by humans towards film technology.  

another great movie 'Avatar' made by James Cameroon has shocked the world with a completely new concept along with characters and an environment that satisfies audiences. 
Avatar uses 3D technologies to track data from the character's body movement. To film the true to life arrangements of Avatar, he utilized an adjusted adaptation of the Fusion camera. The new 3D camera makes an increased reality see for Cameron as he shoots, detecting its situation on a movement catch stage, at that point incorporating the live entertainers into CG conditions on the viewfinder.

His virtual camera permitted Cameron to shoot a scene essentially by traveling through the volume. Cameron could get the camera and shoot his entertainers photographically, as the exhibition happened, or he could reshoot any scene by strolling through the void sound stage with the gadget after the entertainers were gone, catching distinctive camera points as the scene replayed.
