Thriller opening rough cut
Evaluation: clear shots, however more time needed on ensuring all shots are level and more time needed to perfect colour grading.
The soundtrack was made in logic pro but needs to be completed, this was only a rough edit of the final track.
Titles and muzzle flashes need to be applied in after effects, when making the final film.
Compared to level 4 examples of final films i think i need to pay more attention to colour grading and after effects, to ensure that i reach level 4 as my final grade.

Sherlock and Moriarty
In the clips of Sherlock and Moriarty, there is a change.
In the starting clips, Sherlock is shown to be a very dominant and masculine character, as he actually insults Moriarty by calling him gay, exposing him and weakening him.
Moriarty in the starting clips is shown to be very feminine, as he is off balance, shaky and very flirtatious.
These signs and characteristics lead the audience to assume that Moriarty is a homosexual man, and therefore make them think that he is a very promiscuous character.
As the clips progress Moriarty changes his character and becomes more dominant and masculine, his stereotype also changes from a sexual character to the threat, as he starts to insult and intimidate Sherlock, he also does not shy away when Sherlock is pointing a gun at his face, showing bravery, and confidence, both of which are masculine characteristics, leading the audience to believe that he is not a homosexual man.
In these later clips, Sherlock seems to have lost some power as Moriarty has shown his true colours and shocked him, making him lose confidence and become the more feminine character of the two.
Moriarty now shows that he is a match to Sherlock's intelligence, which was his power, showing that he matches Sherlock's power, as he deceived him into thinking that he was no threat, and not to be wary of him.

Gendering Camera
Close up on the muscles of a thug at the table, sizing up how strong, powerful and masculine they are, also sizing up how much competition they are.
Tony adjusting his ring and making a fist, warming up before the fight, showing experience, control and masculinity.
In this shot Tony is bigger than the thug he wants to fight,showing that he is the more masculine male, this type of shot also makes Tony seem more intimidating. The shot also shows that it is Tony vs a group, showing that he is trying to assert his authority.
Low angle shot on Tony, making him appear larger, more superior and more masculine.
Ariel view of Tony, after the fight, making him look tiny and weak, showing his true colours that he is not as fit as he used to be and is desperately trying to keep his authority. This is more of a Feminine shot, because it makes Tony seem small, weak and alone.
