 Hey everyone we hope you all are having a great day and welcome back to our blog! In today's blog we will be disclosing our title design for the opening sequence.  Font:  The opening credits of my film will appear in   a copperplate font. A copperplate font is very bold, simple, yet in your face all at the same time. This will perfectly fit the movies story as it is a boxing movie which has a lot of in your face action. An example of this font can be shown below. Contrast: The text will appear in a grey font to accommodate for the multiple backgrounds. We want the contrast to match so using grey will work for when we are in the darker setting. For example the text will appear on a punching bag which is black but grey will still be visible. When we are outside the grey font will still be able to contrast the brighter colors. If grey doesn't work we will move to a white color, the main difficulty is the fact that we are outside and inside for scenes, some darker areas...

Hey guys it's us again and welcome back to another blog. In today's blog we are now looking into title designs and we need to research how they are made. When looking around the internet we found these two great websites and we'll be explaining what we noticed.    https://www.artofthetitle.com/   When looking into the art of the titles website for title designs we noticed a few things. At first glance,  the website offers a background about a visual editor which isn't of importance. We saw that this website offers a list of title sequences which is beneficial for us because we are looking in to how to make these title designs and bring them to life. What we like about this website is that they break down the title sequences by year; this allows us to see how titles are evolving or how they are remaining the same throughout the years. We observed that the later the year the title designs are made, the more visually appealing they are to the naked eye. This website see...

 Hey everyone! We all hope you are having a great day and welcome back to another blog! In today's blog we will be diving in and looking at the movie elements of one of the most grossed movies in the recent years 'Avengers End Game.'  This movie uses a lot of conventions and I will be explaining just what they use. This movie uses the convention of a good guy fighting a bad guy. In the movie you have a group of heroes known as The Avengers who fight to stop the villain known as Thanos. This movie tells their story through action and has the typical idea of a villain trying to take over the world, in this case, a villain trying to takeover the universe. This movie also uses a lot of stereotypical superhero costumes as well. Some heroes wear capes like Doctor Strange and others are in a suit with weapons like Ironman for example. The height of action is through the roof with this film. In almost every science there is some type of fight going on which is typical of an action...

 Hey everyone we hope you are all having a great day and welcome to our blog! 'The Batman' is an action movie that has swept the stage upon its release. In today's blog we will be diving into what elements the directors use to create such a beautiful action film. In a typical action movie, it starts out with a lot of action. In 'The Batman' instead of a high-action scene to set up the movie they take a different approach. They do start out with a sudden death as most action movies do; however no action actually took place.  This movie is also set at night which makes it a noir movie. They go against conventions of a movie typically being filmed during the day, especially an action movie. This movie is able to film at night and still get some high quality action shots even in the dark due to the technology that we have today. For example, in Batman's face off with the penguin, he seemingly defeats the penguin and walks off with the car exploding. This has a great...

 Hey guys welcome back to our blog, for today's blog we will be making our decision for which genre we will be using for our opening sequence. Genre(Thriller)- After researching the thriller genre, we can say that this is a great genre for our opening sequence. We can take the suspenseful, scary route for our pitch but there are a few problems with this. The first issue is that it would be hard conducting such a film with our pitch. Our pitch deals with the empty hole in a characters heart and his will to fight to fill that void, literally. It would be difficult to make a thriller film with this pitch. Although this could very well be done, it would seem odd and unfit.  Genre(Comedy)- Comedy, this is such a magnificent genre as it brings happiness and laughter to the lives of the audience watching it. For our film making a comedy is a great route to take. We can easily make a parody between Hunter and Cayden as they have a silly, impractical conflict over a girl.  The mai...

 Camera Angles, Movements, Shots Establishing Shot- This shot is used in action films to captivate where the story is taking place so they can get straight to the action. Close up- This shot is used to typically emphasize a quick death in action films. In opening sequences for action films, movies usually start with a lot of action, so close-ups are usually the last shot used to emphasize the action taking place.  Tracking shots- In action films there is always, something significant that happens in the opening sequence to establish the action. Tracking shots are used to capture all of the high speed action taking place.  High angle- This is used to establish the character who is out of power Low angle- Used to show who has the power in the action  Ex: Top Gun Maverick  Mis-En-Scene Props in action movies usually consist of high speed vehicles, guns, weapons, or maybe props to immediately establish what the story is about. These are all used for either fighting,...

 Camera angles, Shots, and movement      Medium shots, over the shoulder shots, two shots, close ups, and long shots are all common camera angles in comedy. All of these camera angles contribute to the success of comedies. A happy and uplifting music, brighter lighting to represent the comic part of the film (making it happier). Ex:  Mis-En-Scene Clothes in comedy films consisting of brighter colors and vibrancy, and props in comedy films are generally wacky, amusing, or stupid are all common Mise En Scene utilized in comedy films. Props usually include funny gadgets or things to humiliate the characters in a way that it's fun. Actors play a crucial part in comedy films because without them there would be no development and nothing funny. Ex: Editing       In comedy films, editing techniques include having precise scene timing, editing as though the sequence was not filmed on one camera (using separate clips from numerous cameras for the same...

Genre Research: Thriller Close-up- may be used when your attention is intentionally directed to the character's face and at times what is behind them. Extreme close-up- used as a powerful way to convey the emotion that the subject is feeling.
They are used in thrillers to allow the audience to get a clear understanding of the emotions the character is going through. Used mostly to convey fear, pain, and sadness in thrillers. Low angle-to show the power struggles of characters throughout intense scenes. High Angle- to show the power struggles of characters throughout intense scenes. Ex:   Costumes are more often than not very simple and plain. Muted colors are usually used to not take away from what is actually happening in the movie. For example in the Split trilogy, muted colors are used for costumes when we are to focus on the dialogue and action. And bright colors are used when they want us to focus on a character. Lowkey lighting is a high-contrast lighting technique that i...
