Last week consumed of many late nights and fiddling with the editing of PB3. Overall I am pretty satisfied with the outcome of my film and feels that it acts upon the expected conventions of the Noir genre, but it also has a creative side revealing my thoughts and expectations of Noir.

What I specifically feel went well with this genre sketch was the portrayal of feeme fatale and showing the two different personalities of the protagonist, around her family and then facing her inner demons. I feel that this film didn’t need much diegetic sound as the visuals themselves portrayed the idea of what is expected to be a women and how that is conflicted.

One part that I feel could have had more work was the camera angles themselves. I really liked the high shots I incorporated in the kitchen and the reflection use in the mirror, but I feel my shots needed to be a bit more distorted to increase this abstract visual of Noir. If I do decided to follow on from PB3 and use this genre in PB4 I think that carrying on with the idea of Femme Fatale is a good insight to look upon as you can really play with the conventions and manipulate the story line to distract the audience from what they expect, but also subconsciously use those conventions expected.
