Tribe Called Quest Music Video


The filmmakers create a relaxed and kind of humorous mood in this music video. They show the group just hanging out together (some would say they are, "kicking it") and enjoying themselves to communicate to the viewer to have a good time with them. They use time remapping and weird sets to give off the humorous effect. The group would move sporadically and fast in the high angle shot looking down on them, giving them weird, yet funny characteristics. The set with the large "it" and the high angle shot with the footsteps made the music video funny rather than serious.

Raiders of the Lost Arc Editing

I noticed that in the boulder scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark, the editing was very fast paced and had a lot of cuts. This style of editing is used to provoke an emotion of intensity. When he was running through the hall back to the entrance, the constant cut after cut made it so that the viewer felt anxious and had them wondering if Indiana Jones would make it or not. This played a key role in opening the film because it expressed the feeling that would be provoked throughout the movie and it also showed the first trait of the main character. It showed that Indiana Jones was daring and how he could get himself out of danger no matter what.

Lav Mics

Lavaliers are omnidirectional microphones and are really useful for news reporters, interviews, etc. They are able to be hidden in shirts and jackets in order to get some crisp, high quality sound. They are very light microphones, so it is easy to attach to your talent. I want more clarification on the loop that is used when setting up the lav mic.
