Inspirational opening sequences

Spiderman

Words flying around everywhere and they are landing on spider webs symbolizing Spiderman and the name of the title then there is a animated Spiderman figure rises then it goes back to the webs. All this intro is animated therefore could symbolize it’s a animated film making some people think that’s what they are going to watch. Then when the film starts it isn’t a animation therefore it creates an illusion in your head weather it is half an half or all fully non animated. The intro creates an image in your head of a animated film but then when you watch the film. This therefore makes you think why did they choose that intro because the film isn’t a animation. The red and blue colour scheme of the intro creates an image in your head to weather Spiderman will choose that colour scheme or not. This intro is like an illusion because it creates loads of images in your head of what you are letting yourself in for then when it comes to the film it leaves loads of unanswered questions flying around in your head.

Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory

At first it shows some chocolate getting mixed with the name of the title in the middle of the screen and the music is just starting to build up and start. Then it cuts to a close up shot of a bag of coco beans pouring out and the song is still going. While this screen is still on the name of two people who are starring in the film pop up. Then it cuts to some powdered coco getting processed with the list of more actors and actresses names on the left of the screen. The them names go away and more come up on the right hand side. Then it cuts to a screen with melted chocolate getting poured down a machine then it introduces more names of actors on the top right of the screen. Then them words disappeared and they come up on the other side of the screen and name another actor. Then after the names dissolve it cuts to a high angle close up shot of some wafer biscuits going through a chocolate coating machine. Then in the top left corner some more important people in making this film comes up then they dissolve away. Then more come in on the bottom right on the same shot of the wafers. Then they dissolve away from the screen. Then it cuts to a shot of caramel being piled up on top of more caramel. Then the name of the film editor comes up in the center of the page and the name of the coloring software. Then they dissolve away and more names come up on the left hand side of the screen. Then it cuts to a shot of machine pumping out small bite size pieces of chocolate then more names dissolve in on the full left hand side of the screen. Then it dissolves in to a shot of the chocolate covered wafers getting sprinkled with bits. Then even more important names come up on the middle of the screen. Then they dissolve away and the name of another important persons name comes up on the bottom right of the screen. Then it cuts to a high angle shot of the conveyor belt carrying the bite size pieces of chocolate, while the names of another important person comes up on the top left of the corner. These words then dissolve away and more come up on the bottom right hand corner of the screen. Then it cuts to a conveyor belt transporting teacakes. Then some more important information comes up on the top left hand corner of the screen. It then dissolves away and more comes up in the bottom left of the corner. Then it cuts to a high angle sot looking over thousands of wonka bars. Then the name of the director comes u for a couple of seconds then it dissolves away. Then it cuts to a black screen and the movie begins. This opening sequence makes you think the film is about chocolate and the name gives it a idea that it might be set in a chocolate factory. The use of sound throughout the opening sequence is very clever as they take several songs from the film and merge them all into a 2-3 minute over track that fits with the clips and shots being used. The opening titles also set the genre of the film of a fantasy family musical film.       

Survey results

These are some results i have found by the survey wes sent to many people in and around the collage.

Survey

As Brief

AS BRIEF

For this AS brief, as a group me and my partner were ask to do 2 tasks. The first task was the preliminary task. This task involved filming and editing a character opening a door, walking across the room and sitting down in a chair in continuity. Following the character’s complete movement to the chair, he/she was then asked to exchange a few lines of dialogue with another character. This task should incorporate the shot/reverse shot and the 180 degree rule.

Main Task: To create the titles and opening of a new fiction film, which will last a maximum of two minutes.

 All video and audio material must be original, produced by the candidate(s), other than music/ audio effects from a copyright-free source. Both the preliminary and main tasks may be done individually or as a group, with a maximum of four members per group.

Horror Genre in box office

In recent years there has been a rise in the amount of horror films following the success of films like paranormal activity and and the Saw franchise.

Since the start of the 20th century there has been an increase of horror films with advanced CGI and movie studies came up with the idea to film real footage and edit it together with CGI.

This is proven in the graph below it shows a influx in popularity between 1995 and 2013. This may be because there was not many truly ‘scary’ horror movies coming out until 1997, where it peaked. After 2007 it started to drop, this may be because people may be getting sick of the constant stream of horror movies or peoples ideas of scary may have changed.

I am legend – When the movie I Am Legend was released, many critics and audience members had problems with the fact that it was categorised as a horror film even though it didn’t contain many codes and conventions of a stereotypical horror movie.

Twilight - In 2008 the movie ‘Twilight’ was released and many and many critics also had problems with it because some classed it as a horror because it contained vampires and werewolfs but others said that it was only a fantasy movie.

Film clip analysis

La Confidential

Medium tracking shoot- this shows the a man running across the road to get to a desired location. This is a shot used for the effect and o show how the man is moving because the camera is moving fast this shows the speed of the man.

 Close up shot- the close up shot shows the mans emotion. This creates mystery as you don’t know what is going to happen next as there is a look of panic on the mans face. This makes the audience think to themselves what is going to happen next.

low angle shot- this low angle shot is used to show the mans head get flung around as he gets smacked around the face. This makes the man look powerful

This close up shot brings added suspense as it makes us as an audience feel intimidated because it makes the man look big and powerful. It shows the characters emotion and puts his anger across. 

This extreme close up of the hand going to get the keys is used to show the importance of the object and how it means a lot to the person to get the keys so he can get out and lock the door.

The close up shot used here shows the mans struggle with opening the boot of his car as he need to get something out he needs. This shot has been used because it was the best way to get the desired effect.
