Joshua Listrom's AICE Media Studies

  This video would be an example of Parallelism and or Simultaneity. However, I would say that this would be closer to Parallelism mostly due to how each person and each car are moving back and forth showing how each character is reacting to the situation. In this scene specifically from the movie Austin Powers, the back car starts to shoot at the car with Powers in it. This shows the repeating of going back and forth between each car and each person. At the end of the scene you can see how the reactions of the shooting goes back and forth and soon enough the back car with the villain proves to be outmatched and the scene shoots forward to how the car flies off of the cliff.  This is another scene from Squid Game on Netflix portraying the master edit of Simultaneity. In this scene you can see the workers or guards roaming down the halls bringing some cargo further below the higher prison levels. At this same time, the prisoners are moving up and down the colorful staircases mo...

  https://youtu.be/KNRE1FTJHPE This is Khang Tran’s and Joshua Listrom’s 5 master edits. First off, the contrast edit. In this specific scene you can almost notice the amount of enormous effort being put into writing an assignment onto this paper. As the student seems like he is working his day away, you can see a clear transition into what he truly wants to be doing. In this case, it’s scrolling through TIK TOK! Secondly, the Ideal shot of parallelism where it shows two separate people living there own lives in their everyday high school hallway. As this scene goes further it displays the similarities but also differences within each footstep. Creating a more streamlined type of parallelism!  In this example we are showing symbolism, which in short is the similarities within the two different shots. You can see in this example that the defensive lineman on the wall (displaying math figures) quickly switch to an actual defensive lineman for our Lely High School football team s...

Manifest: One of reasons that I chose this series is because of the Sci/fi aspects. This is a series that represents a cool storyline of an airplane that disappears and then comes back 10 years in the future. Families have grown-up without their mothers and fathers and then they come back with their kids already grown up without them. Then the FBI and CIA look into the case of the missing flight that magically came back and then things start to get heated. This is considered an eye level shot which can demonstrate feelings of emotion or a sense of closeness towards the main characters. In this specific shot it represents a possible event of disruption or a shot which shows fear or doubt. This is by the one of the main characters and shows how shocked he is to see an event or person (Don't want to spoil). Mostly this shot is used to convey a sense of fear within all of the character(s) in this scene. But also, it can show sometimes happiness or prevail when looking back/forward to s...
