This week we learnt about a type of film that can be used to teach the elements of media arts. This type of film is generally related to film and photography and is known as an 'Escape film'. An escape film uses elements of media arts to create structure/ intenet and character. These elements can be taught to students which benefit them when making and creating film and photos to present an idea or story in media arts.
During an escape
portrayal, the maker must incorporate several tricks to ensure their film is
successful as a quality escape film.
These
include:
•Needs
There are consequences,
if the object or person doesn’t escape, the maker can create high tension by
having thus person have high needs.
•Obstacles
Creates higher
tension
•Action/Reaction
Is an essential
element which helps the audience to not miss the obstacles
•Tension and Suspense
Puts the
audience on edge, draws them in and leaves them wanting to see what’s next,
To teach
students about escape movies I would have them, script and create a whole class
play, which uses the entire above element. Film or photograph their story and
present to present or show on an assembly. Students can use their surroundings
(classroom/playground) to film or photograph their story.
