Research into typical synopsis

Research into typical synopsis

Synopsis" is a term used in the entertainment industry to indicate a matter-of-fact summation of a story's plotline, a shorter version of the longer work (whether that work is a novel, a nonfiction book, a screenplay, or even a treatment). Think of the synopsis as a more or less complete and detailed recitation of all the scenes and events in a story, a condensed version of the plot. The synopsis' purpose is to describe, not to sell. The treatment's purpose is to sell, and that's why it's written with an intensity and urgency the synopsis characteristically lacks.

Iconography Associated with the sports Genre

Still Frame Analysis

Rocky 6 Still frame analysis
Rocky being very similar genre to our own film I have decided to do a bit of research and do a still frame analysis of the image above.

Mise en scene:
In this scene it shows rocky boxing with his opponent in the ring. The background of this scene shows the ref inspecting the fight and also the crowd watching the fight.
The boxing shows rocky punching his opponent with some power as the expression on his face indicts this.

The color of the scene is very serious colors that consist of blacks, yellow, white and blue. These are the main colors that can be seen straight away that give a
serious mood to the fight.  

The costumes that the fighters are wearing are appropriate as they are wearing boxing attire such as shorts and gloves. This gives the scene more realism into how it is a professional fight with the attire being very professional.  

The props of the scene are the ring and the boxing gloves. Without these props it would not be a boxing scene.

The lighting of the scene is a very dark around the ring but as to inside the ring and where the fighters are has a hard light upon them from showing the importance of them and them being in the spot light.

This scene is a 2 person shot or a mid-long shot. This is because the scene shows from the knee to the head. This scene shows a lot of action so it is the right camera angle to get the most important actions in the scene.  

 The organization of the scene shows at the rope viewing the fighters fighting followed by the referee behind inspecting the fight. They’re after shows the fans outside the ring followed by sponsorships above the ring. This gives a professional touch to the scene as we feel like we are at a real boxing match rather then at a film.

Sponsership

Sponsorship for gloves up
This sponsorship bored was made in Photoshop, i made this out of series of images and added the font and tried to give it a professional look as possible. We are then going to use this on a projector behind us so it looks again professional how we would find it in a sports interview or press conference layout.

opening scene for gloves up

Scene fades in with Zee Played by Junuz jogging up the street, the scene is slowed down with music playing in the background "Eminem lose yourself" Title's run across the bottom. The next scene is Chris played by "Luke" lifting weights. The scenes keep switching from Junuz training, back to Luke training and this is a repeated pattern.  For 1 minute and 20 seconds. The Next scene will be at the actual gym, the camera focuses on the ring. The 2 fighters both step in, referee played by Titas, will introduce the fighters. The same music will play throughout, while any speech is muted. Towards the end, the referee raises his hand and starts the fade, while the scene fades out into a black Title clip, gloves Up!
