Titles
After our research we found that titles are a key part of any movie the font the size all of this should be thought about as is does play a role in how interested the audience will be. Our movie being a action thriller you will notice that movie within a similar catergory will have similar titles. movies such as james bond and the batman keep an element of excitement when the title is introduced, in our film we tried to use this same techniques by making the title swerve towards the audience and with use of the blood splatters we were able to connote murder aswell much similar to the batman title which both can be seen below.
How the plot is established
James bond title sequence is expectional good and establishing the narritive as it is how women fighting and guns and all of these elements come up within movie. Much like our own title sequence we try to incorporate as many of the elements of the movie in to the opening sequence whilst still keeping the movies enigma code. Our movie is about a serial killer who seduces women, whereas as james bond is about a man killing off his enemy usaully with a pistol. both of the picture below show this respectively in my title sequences the male protagonist is in an intimate moment with a women showing the seduce side of the killer. In james bond he's shooting his gun introducing his character to the audience
Setting and location
The location of the movie is important for any movie as it can make the movie more believable or less and also it can help the audience relate to the movie. Our movie was shot inside the tv studio meaning that location have to be fabricated and to countiue with the current look of our film we made of setting an animated city. This was typical to a a movie of our genre, as action movies seem alot more believable when there in a city because cities are represented in the media as were the most action happens.
Costume
Our title sequence all of the characters were in sillohuettes so elborate costumes were not that neccesary there was only really one need for the costume and that was to give our character shape. By this is mean the clothing that they wore had to give them a shape that almost represents them for example the male protagonist wore a suit as he is supposed to be a business and the suit although blockout the audience can still tell. much like the women they had to were titght clothing which represented there feminity sin city also do the same using the shape of a character to represent them. You can see both below.
Editng
Movie within our genre are genrally fast pace movies which capture the audience instantly this si why we had to make sure that our editing was extremly. Although ours in an action thriller is doesn't stick to the usual title of a movie within this genre as it is an extremely slow paced movie and rathaer than jump cut your find our movie fades instead, but to capture the audience we have used elements such making sure there was a lot of mystery in our opening sequence so the audince is constant trying to figure out how this relates. Also we also uses a slight amount of colour this colour mostly being red which connotes danger love passion etc.
How are the characters introduced
Our character are introduced trying to follow the plot of the movie so for example our male protagnist is a man in authority so we show him smoking but then he is also supposed to live a life of a serial killer some we try to make this kinda clear to the audience in the picture below you can see he's following a woman and this instant make the audience ask what is he doing. The characters do not really break the usual convention of the gnre much like some movie such as obessed or charlie angels where women are the stalker or are the one to save the day.
Iconography
iconography is a key element of any movie as it is a clear cut indication of the the genre and also is tell you a lot about the character with out you giving away the naravtive in our movie the male character is seen hold a cigar which can be seen as stereotypical of a man in authority especially as hes sitting down leaning back.
