The Jungle Book 
Chroma capture- The jungle book was filmed using green screens for the background that wouldn't be able to be imagined or made like a regular film. The chroma captures a background and a character or object separately, and then use 3D animation, image digitalisation and computer generated graphics. The Jungle Book used blue screen. 
Digitisation- The film used to be on a strip, if you get more than 24 films her second it would look continuous. CGI makes everything continuous and digital versions of the film, allowing for different environments, cutting parts out and adding different backgrounds etc. 
Performance capture- Facial recognition and tracking has been used to make the exact movements and expressions for each character. The actor had to hug and pretend a head of each animal was real. The producers was then use CGI to add more realistic elements to each animal. Motion sensors or infra red sensors were put on different characters to make the movements look more realistic. 

Film production- The old jungle book was filmed using painted backgrounds and cartoon images where as the 2017 version is made with green screens made up of realistic imagined backgrounds. The technological advances in the 2017 version allows for the movie to be realistic. Disney was producing lo quality cartoons until they bought pixar for 7.4 billion dollars. 

Mega-franchise films rely on the spectacle. Spectacle is used by large corporations to encourage family viewings in the cinema. It acts as a 'barrier' to the less major studios. Wanting to see the movie on a big screen, to make it more enjoyable.

Sethi filmed all his scenes against green screens; small pieces of the set would be created if he had to interact with something (like a log, a rocky outcropping, or a slick, muddy field). This approach was pioneered by filmmakers like George Lucas.

The Jungle Book used “pre-visualization” techniques pioneered by movies like Avatar and Gravity, in which the film’s look—including camera moves, motion-captured performances, and set design—were sketched out before beforehand and created before filming even began

Media Language in the Jungle Book

­­Media Language in the Jungle Book In the 2016 trailer of the Jungle Book has been created using computers and CGI as well as special effects making it look verisimilitude . The animals and background images have been made to look incredibly realistic, this then attracts attention to how the movie looks so real when really it’s a movie containing talking animals. In comparison the 1967 version of the Jungle Book has been made as a cartoon with no special computers or technology, the backgrounds are watercolour and the animals are simple animations. This doesn’t make the movie realistic and is more attractive to the younger audience. Dramatic non-diegetic music has been used throughout the trailer to give the audience a small hint that the movie is going to be really dramatic and have lots of twists and turns. Then there is the diegetic sound of Scarlet Johansson talking as the snake, which is calm and juxtaposes the dramatic movie but then towards the end of the movie you act...

Downton Abbey analysis

At 0:47 the contrast in costumes shows the difference between the rich and the poor. The rich people are wearing expensive, traditionally high class outfits (suits) and the lower class are wearing work outfits for example the servants (aprons and hats) and the paper boy. This shows a direct contrast between the two classes.  There is high key lighting in the upper class peoples section of the house showing that they are more powerful because they are in a brightly lit area. Low key lighting is used in the areas of the house such as the kitchen where the servants work and live because traditionally they would be in the bottom floor of the house.  At 0:49, the man looks down on the paper boy as he is late and snatches the paper from him.  At 1:09 there is a close up shot of the man reading the newspaper and you can see the facial expression but there is no clue on what he is reading.  At 1:17 you can see the class difference as the lower class workers have to i...
