Media Arts
Today in our media arts lesson, we revised all topics we studied in term 1 and we also talked about film noir. Some things we worked on are as follows:
Femme Fatale - a beautiful woman who knows what she wants and how to get it.
Police/Private Detective
Victim
Dark Mood
Cinematic Techniques
- Low key lighting
- Shadowy Shots
Blade Runner - The first couple of shots especially show Neo Noir as the as the setting a night and near shops easily conveys this. I also have very high lighting in particular shots.

Film Noir
Definition: Film Noir is a movie characterized by low-key black and white lighting, a bleak urban setting, and corrupt, cynical characters. It is a cinematic term used primarily to describe stylish Hollywood crime dramas, particularly those that emphasize cynical attitudes.
Hollywood's iconic film noir period is generally around the years from early 1940s to the late 1950s. Many of the prototypical stories and much of the attitude of classic noir derive from the hardboiled school of crime fiction that emerged in the United States during the Great Depression.
Film examples:
- The Maltese Falcon
- Double Indemity
- Laura
- The Big Sleep
- The Killers
- Out of the Past
- Sweet Smell of Success
