Equipment

Hi Daisy & Dilara,
You may borrow the equipment on the 14th. But please let me know what time you wish to collect it also when you are going to return it. As you are borrowing the lights these need to be picked up with a car as they are to heavy and bulky to take on Public Transport.

Planning

The planning of my opening film;

I am working in a pair with Dilara Ozbalci, the genre of our film is a horror. Our target audience for our opening title sequence is for an audience aged 15 and above.

Summary of our opening title sequence;
In our film it with include a teenage group of students from London, They are heading off for a road trip to celebrate the christmas holidays, this happens in the year 2012. Unfortunately they come across a video camera containing horrific footage which sends their vacation down the complete opposite road. For them to survive the group must do certain tasks and avoid certain places captured in the footage on the camera.

The title;
The name of our film is 'Captured'

What we aim to do;
Through the opening of our film we hope to engage our target audience and making them want to see more of the film.

Main character;
We have 5 main characters in this film, through the opening title sequence we hope to give the audience a brief insight of each characters personality and their role in the film.

The audiences experience;
We are going to be using a lot of various camera angles and editing skills, by doing this we hope to engage the audience to make them feel as if they are involved in the movie, this makes the film much more of a horror for them.

Where the film is set;
 Our opening title sequence is set mainly on a deserted road going through a forest, the road is very narrow and there are trees all around it this makes the characters and the audience feel isolated.

The perks of being a wallflower(2012)- Opening title sequence

Watching the 'The perks of being a wallflower(2012)' directed by Stephen Chbosky i noticed, the title sequence starts off with titles shown in an old type writing font, and in the back we hear the sound of typing. It then goes onto lots of lights inside a tunnel so it looks as if they are driving throw the tunnel, the titles fade onto the shot and fade out. The sound of a radio is being played so makes the audience think there are in a car going somewhere. It then cuts to a boy in his room writing a letter, whilst he is writing the letter there is a voice over of him reading it in his head, this ables the audience to get an incite of what is being written. Also makes the audience think that the boy has been typing the whole way through the shot, this can suggest time has past.

Six feet under (2001)- Opening title sequence

Watching the title of Six feet under directed by Danny Yount. It shows many different images, half of the images are disturbing and the other half seem very peaceful shots of wild life and blue skies. These images are positive and negative, as they have many different meanings. Close-up vignettes of bodies, gruesome and fantastic landscapes mingle with parting hands and familiar metaphors of death and passage, as the camera hovers with a gentle curiosity pausing at times to search the sky for answers.

 A cold and muted color palette hangs over the sequence and a warm imagery of clasped hands, framed memories, and the living. And yet, despite the presence of death in nearly every frame, beauty and wonder emerge. The titles are shown in different areas of each shot. Some of the titles are written on a grave stone and another in a glass water.

I chose to annaylse this programme as i liked the shots within it, I wanted to use some of the shot techniques to use in my own film opening, as i find them striking and intresting. I like the shot above of the hospital corridoor as there is only two main key features to focas on and that is the standing center figure in the distance, and the hospital bed to the right of the shot.

Indiana Jones- Raiders of the lost ark-Title sequence

The opening of the film is the title sequence at start of the film is playing whilst the actors, production team, director e.t.c are being shown. This is making sure the audience sees everyone involved and engages them to watch the rest of the movie. From the start of the film, I can see that it is action/adventure movie because of the setting, music and dressing of the characters. The music is tense and builds up the expectations of the movie. The opening of the film introduces the main characters, that will be seen throughout the film. The focus is mainly on Indiana Jones whom is who we see at the start to finish. Close up shots are used throughout the sequence to further show the audience he is the main character and also to inform the audience of the genre.
The close ups used shows the audience his appearance. Some of the titles gives the audience information for example it sets the scene by saying 'South America 1936'
