Psycho Shower Scene Analysis


In class, I watched the iconic 'shower scene' from the movie 'Psycho'. I was then put into a group and our time was to recreate the sound in the video, we done this by being given a voice recorder and objects. These objects consist of; A Curtain, Tap, Bubble Wrap, Rice and A Ballon. We also recorded someone screaming and someone walking to recreate the natural sounds. 

 After getting the sounds we used 'Adobe Premiere Pro' to edit in the sounds effect. firstly we downloaded the video and had to mute the audio. after this we imported the sounds and sound effect we recorded and imported them into the video, this was the hardest part, trying to perfectly align the audio and video. After a couple of attempts, we managed to align it up perfectly. 

 What went well was gathering the sounds and the video. we used the curtain for the shower curtain sound, pushing down the tap for turning on the shower, washing hands for the washing sound, twisting bubblewrap and pouring rice into a plastic box for the water hitting the floor noise and the ballon for when she slides down the wall after being stabbed noise. 

 What did not go too well initially was the post preduction, this was when we had to find the perft speed and volume for the sounds. Some of our sounds we had to slow down and or speed up, so finding the perfect tempo was a long and stressful process.

Multi Choice Game

The Walking Dead - Game  The Walking Dead has a interactive storyline which makes the game more fun, this is because the choices you make will verdantly effect you in the future. From small choices such as, "Say hello" or "Ask whats happening" to "Help Duck" or "Help Shaun". This makes the player feel so much more involved into the story line. There are a maximum of four options to choose at one time but can be three or two. Through the interactivity you can grow close to other  characters, or become distant from them.

Applying Media Theorys To My Media Project

1A. Props Character Theory In Alice's story she had some of the characters from  Vladimir Propp's Theory, these being the hero ,the villain, the helper ,the donor and the princess. Alice is represented as the princess and the hero because she doesn't want to drink the alcohol and drinks water: Princess. Because you follow Alice's journey she represents Hero.  in addition Alice informs the other characters they should be in class. Henry is the villain because he spikes her drink with a drug and also Punches her. Callum plays the helper because he comes to the aid of her when she is pushed furthermore he invites Alice to the party this also makes him be the donor. The production does use some of the characters, but on the other hand not all of the character types are used, this is because the crew used, was not big enough to cover all characters. 1B. Todrovo's Theory My story has the same equilibrium/ disruption/ new equilibrium structure that Todrovo outlines
