Final Destination 3 Part 4

This clip starts off with a point of view shot on the rollercoaster to create fear in the audience.
Then their is a two shot showing two people on the rollercoaster
Next their is an aerial shot showing all the bright lights and rides in the theme park
Then their is long shots of the rollercoaster and medium shots of the passengers on the rollercoaster
Then their is a tracking shot that follows the rollercoaster all the way to the top.
Then their are more point of view shots that are more shakey than before to increase the level of fear in the audience. Then their are close ups of broken chains and oil leaking from the ride. These shots tell the audience  that the objects in the close up are significant to the storyline in the film.
Then when the ride begins to show signs of breaking down the camera shots are even shakier than previously.
Then when the passengers realized that their was something wrong with the ride the director used closeup shots of the passengers to show their emotions and to show how frightened they were.
Then their is a long shot of the rollercoaster breaking apart and falling to the ground.
Then their is a series of meduim shots showing the passengers falling off the rollercoaster.
Then their is a close up of the wheels from the rollercoaster moving back and forth. This shot is used to create tension.

stars not only encourage you to watch a film but they persuade you to buy the perfume and makeup etc.. for example Ewan McGregor sells Davidoff perfume for men.
also stars used to sell cigerettes in the 1930's

they influence the way we live by us wanting to dress or have a style like a star. for example the Rachel haircut or Rihanna red hair

examples of stars that sell products through tv advertising are

Kate Moss-perfume, Rimmel make up
Cheryl Cole- Loreal hair products and makeup
Eva Longoria -Loreal hair spray
Penelope Cruz- hair products
Uma Thurman - Alfa Romeo
Orlando Bloom - Hugo Boss
Reece Witherspoon- Avon
Vanessa Hudgens-Neutrogena face wash
Kiera Knightley- perfume for Chanel
Nicole Kidman - Chanel

tom cruise-case study

In the past tom cruise was very private and liked to keep his public life private and out of the public eye. All we knew about him was the fact he is a nice guy

 Then on May 23 2005 he came on the Oprah Winfrey show, went a bit mad, jumped around on the couch and almost ruined his career. He was allowed to do this because his PR was a bit useless and let him make a fool out of himself.


Now he has a PR that closely controls his public image and public persona and will not allow him to do this kind of thing again.
