The AJ & JR Show: There Will Be Blood Critique

In my elective course, Ollywood we focus on the components that makes a film come together. The second Action Project is a video critique about the 2007 drama film, There Will Be Blood. The purpose of this project was to give a general explanation of the plot, characters, framing, lighting, and also our personal experience of the movie in a video format with a partner. I'm proud of being with a peer, and to accomplish this assignment in this time frame we had. The most challenging part for my partner and I was the filming of the video, we had faced a lot of camera and tech issues while filming. Overall I would do it again with my partner! Below you can locate the rest of our project. I hope you enjoy it as my partner and I enjoyed making it.

My Model Stage: Stage Chemistry

For this action project we were assigned to build our blueprint that we were also assigned to do for the first AP of stage chemistry. My first AP I chose to measure Fasseas in Menomonee Boys & Girls club. I Basically Measure throughout card board and cut and built Fasseas Stage that I drew on my blueprint. What I am most proud of is to have my stage built before everything is due and well, because it was a fun AP. As a follow up with my previous Action Project (Link) I had turned my blueprints into an 3D model, that you can locate below in a series of moving pictures.

For my first motion that I chose was a trap door that I cut in the middle of my stage. I chose to cut it in the middle of  my stage because I thought  it would be cool to have a person go through it while performing to get the audience to react some type of way. This trap door is made for actors (people) to make a good way out of the stage more like disappear. While someone is going through their scene they will usually go through the trap door to not make a plain exit from the stage, and they will usually end up in the bottom of the stage. As you can see on these to examples of the trap door on my stage this person weighs 135 pounds and the force being made on the trap door is 600.507 newton's same as the upward force on the trap doors. The way I found out how much force was given up and down the trap doors, with the persons weight. The person weighed 135 and so I multiplied it by 4.4482 and got 600.507 newton's which is the exact force for both ways (up and down).

For my second motion I chose was a pulley. I put my pulley above my stage so it can look like a real pulley and for the people that will be using it. I added a chair on the left so that a person can pull the person up and down and make it look like the person is above ground. Usually the person will wear a belt and that belt will be attached with the pulley to bring the person up and down. To make this pulley I made a hole on the top of the roof of my stage and inserted a loop to put in the rope to give my pulley some action.

Trap Door Safety Rules:

• Make sure your on time to go through the trap doors.
• Be careful how you land.
• Make sure the trap doors are unlocked.
• Fall the proper way in case something goes wrong.
• Trap door must be clear from the bottom (besides something comfy to land on) and top.
• If done using the trap door, please lock it so no one falls through it while walking on stage.
• Make sure their isn't nothing blocking the trap doors on stage.
• Don't fall head first while going through the trap doors.

Pulley Safety Rules:

• Make sure that you belt is clicked on and working good.
• When above ground don't touch the belt or release the buckle.
• Don't pull or grab on to the pulley rope.
• Don't get distracted while your about to get pulled up.
• Make sure to get your harness on before getting pulled up.
• Don't perform a weird stunt that will get you tangled while above ground.
• Chair man has to be strong and not get easily distracted.
• Make sure your weight is checked before using pulley.

I used my blueprint to build my stage because when I created the blueprint with the measures of Fasseas and I needed those measurements for my stage. I also included a roof and also made my stage hallow so that way I have a better view of my trap doors I put on the top of my stage.
