Genre research: Titanic

There's a plethora of camera movements, shots, and angles in this dramatic film. For instance, high angles, over the shoulder, and dutch. In this film, they use these different shots and angles to emphasize different characters emotions and reactions. To add on, the film includes two and three shots including different subjects engaging in conversation, etc. For example, there was a scene of Jack holding Rose on the boat, standing behind her.  The director also used zoom and tilt movements on subjects to enhance the emotion of the scene. There were also many eye line matches between the lovers making it romantic and heart warming for the viewers. Jack and Rose were in love so many scenes involved eye contact. The director uses these techniques to make the viewers feel connected to the film. He also uses them to make the movie feel more realistic and natural.
Common costumes in this film was more conservative and rustic. Characters wore skirts, long dresses, and leather apparel that isn't as common today. The lighting in this movie for the most part was natural and key lighting. The setting of the movie was on a huge boat so the outside environment was perfect for film makers. The acting involved between characters was very dramatic and exaggerated. It captured the emotion of the scene often causing viewers to feel sad and sympathetic for the characters. An example of this was when the boat was sinking and people began to drown and die. The makeup used was very light and soft. Most characters were of a lighter skin tone, so much of the makeup was similar and brought out their skin. The setting of the film was under water in a submarine. They found the titanic sunken at the bottom of the ocean establishing what happened to the boat and what the movie is about.
Editing that was commonly used in the film was jump cuts and cross cutting. The film would go from one scene to the next. The film also included a multitude of different sounds. For instance, there was a lot of diegetic sound and dialogue. There were things that characters could naturally hear in their environment. Many of the sounds were also very dramatic touching the hearts of the viewers. I enjoyed the drama of the film and how relatable it was in the sense of loving somebody. Nobody wants to lose someone they love so it was depressing to see characters die. It also made me think that life isn't guaranteed and anything can happen, so don't take anything for granted.
