| Summary: | The purpose of the study is to analyze the methods employed in pyrotechnics in the three films selected which includes Gerak Khas the Movie 2 (2002), Bodyguard 2 (2007) and Shiri (1999). Based on pyrotechnics employed in the three films, the study attempts to examine the liability faced by pyro-technicians as a sample of the importance, impact and challenges the Malaysian pyro-technicians may face. At the end of the study, a guideline is proposed towards the accreditation of Malaysian pyro-technicians in Malaysian Films. Additionally, this study will highlight new developments in the area of pyrotechnics and emphasize the importance of the use of pyrotechnics in Malaysian films at the present time as well as the future. This study employs the qualitative approach through participant observation, interview and content, analyzing scenes from the films rather than from written sources. Purposive sampling is selected to convey the limited resources from pyro-technicians, pyrotechnics and past research regarding Malaysian as well as Southeast Asian films. It is hoped that this study will contribute towards accrediting the Malaysian pyro-technicians due to their complex skill and expertise, liability and their overall impact upon the look of Malaysian action films. |
