Practice Titles with sound.



These are two different types of titles which our group are deciding over.
The red titles imply danger and risk, however they do not look very profesional.
The white titles however look far more profesional, they look more classy and bold than the red ones.
The font is nice, it suits the genre of the film.
The sharp cuts add to the tension.

1 minute sequence - Corey Edwards

We were put into different groups to the ones we usually work with.
My role was the actor. My character was tied to a chair in a dark room
The whole point of the project was to showcase different shot types typical to thriller films.
We had a deadline for the end of the lesson and as a group i think we worked quickly together to reach this.
We used the following shots;

Close-up
Extreme close-up
Long shot
mid-shot
High-angle
low-angle
Point of view shot
slow zoom in
pan

We completed all of these shots, some were both done within one shot, for example at the beginning of our piece we zoom out, completing close-up, extreme close-up, mid-shot and a long shot.
Overall i belive we worked both well and quickly to a deadline.

Title Sequence evalution Homework - Spiderman. (Corey Edwards)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1f5ykkGJvMU

Spider-man is one of the most famous comic characters of all time. The film was one of the most successful ever upon release. The title sequence in spider-man is very much related to the film in terms on font and backgrounds. The names are written in the same font as spider-man's name is on his suit. The background for the names is the shape of a web, the names appear to fall and stick to the web. The title sequence lasts around 4 minutes, the words spin around and seperate, this is supposed to look like the way spider-man spins from web to web in the film. Also in this title sequence there is a use of pop-art images, (much like the ones in original Marval comics) flicking in and out, this sets the scene and introduces the characters.
I like this title sequence because i feel it has a connection to the film more than most. This title sequence is also different to others in the way it is constructed, most films introduce the title of the film either at the beggining or the end, however the words spider-man are scene mid way through the sequemce.
I believe that this title sequence is successfull because it has a different approach and a nice way of linking titles to the movie.
