Science fact or Cinematic Fiction?
Intro
- Thesis: Based on the action reaction concept along with jump magnification and path of action, mainly principals dealing with jumps these three movies break these principals in many ways.
- Introduce movies: Kill Bill Vol.1, Fearless, and Bolt
Bolt
- Introduce Scene:
- Bolt Jumps over a hovering helicopter
- Explain Broken Principals: Jump Magnification, and Path of action
- When Bolt approaches the jump he merely crouches down about 2 inches before his leap, yet manages to traverse the hovering chopper.
- Bolts path of action seems to jump during the cut making him leap futhere then his original path
- Explain how these conflicts can be resolved:
- having his pause before the jump a little longer
- and following through the path during the cut
Fearless
- Introduce scene:
- fight scene on a towering platform in the middle of the city.
- Explain Broken Principals: Path of Action,and Action Reaction
- During fight the protagonist leaps from the edge of the tower fanning his legs out and and returning back to the platform in a crescent path parallel to the floor.
- his original jump does not hook up with the reaction to the rest of the stunt
- Explain how the conflicts can be resolved:
- By tracking his path of action and changing the jump completely
Kill Bill Vol. 1
- Introduce Scene: Large fight scene gang boss chases the protagonist onto high catwalk.
- Explain broken Principals: Jump magnification, path of action, and action /reaction
- The Boss runs up the wall in a matter that's physically impossible with no preparation for the leap
- his path of action is severely flawed
- the action of his foot grazing the wall does not match his reaction propelling him on to the catwalk
- Explain how these conflicts can be resolved:
- he needs a push factor in order to leap as high as he does
- his path of action should require more pedestals for him to reach the top
Conclusion
Very good. 10 points
