Taxi driver trailer a film by Martin Scorsese

The Art House approach Marcus



There where two films that really stood out in my research into this type of film , these where Los Caminos de Octubre a film by Ruben Fernandez and the beginning part of the trailer for Taxi Driver a film by Martin Scorsese. This was due to the lighting and the framing of the shots , this links to a video I had got inspiration in the past from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhOMCtHHN3o a video on how each piece of footage in a film must be framed and shot as if each clip could be a photograph.  As seen in these two extracts this is very clear as many of the colors seen are very vibrant for example the reds , yellows , pinks , blues , greens and yellows which allows a personal touch to be made  .

More research into enigma codes Marcus

The other film I studied which contained a large amount of enigma codes was the Silence Of The Lambs a film by Jonathan Demme  as in the opening scenes of this film we see a woman running through woods , this action allows for a questions to arise : who is she ? and what has made her run ?. The scene which follows then shows that she is running over an assault course , this is because we see her climb over an object . She is then asked to see Mr Crawford . This then creates another question : Who is Mr Crawford ? and what does he want ?

Research into Enigma codes Marcus

One of the films I encountered in my research was the 2001 space odyssey by Stanley Kubrick, this I thought contained the use of enigma codes as , we are not fully aware of the story line until the very end .

Enigma Codes Marcus


What are Enigma codes ?

Enigma codes pose questions to the audience , these are later resolved throughout the film these questions enable the audience to be intrigued with the film and wanting to find out the answers to these questions, therefore watching more of it this therefore means that these codes entice the audience to watch the rest of the film as they're curious as to what will happen next and while doing this they also help to move on the narrative.
