Scarlet Silver
For this project we were given the task to produce a 1940s-50s film Noir, we named our film Scarlet Silver and we decided to start at a murder scene and the detective is looking through the suspects who murdered the girl. We then reveal that the detective is the killer and the femme fatale is in on it too, at the end of our sequence we highlight that the man who was framed was actually the femme fatales husband.
We included a murder, an investigator and a femme fatale which are all common conventions of a Noir film we also made it in black and white to help the low key lighting, which is also a common convention, as we filmed it in the sunlight. My part in producing our film was joint editing and sound with Micky. We decided to take away the sound in the film as we believed it made it more mysterious and we replaced the sound with the sound of a keyboard playing harshly on the keys. This non-diegetic sound added to the collection of common conventions within our film. I believe our attempt of including common conventions of a Noir film in our sequence was rather success although we intended to do a voice over in place of the music however we didn't have enough time. Therefore if we could improve our film we would add a voice over to narrate the story and we would make it longer, getting into more detail on the story line to enable it to be more clear on what happens.
