opening sequences that i researched
Go to the art of title sequence
I liked this title sequence because there was a lot of close up shots of different objects. all these objects are from the time the film was set and one of the titles are of a close up of someone drawing a mockingbird. all the names of the people who are in this film are in the title sequence as well as what they play in the film
William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
Go to the art of title sequence
I liked this title sequence because it set the scene of what is going to happen and why everything in the film happens. It starts off with a TV which goes all crackly and then there is a news report. The women is speaking the prologue that Shakespeare actually wrote in his play. It goes on to introduce all the characters. It's not just told to you but also shown to you that these two families don't like each other
Domino
Go to the art of tile sequence
I liked this title sequence because it shows all the different character but all their different body parts. It shows what the film is about which is gun crime. There is a lot of different colour

Preliminary task
When shooting a scene you must make sure that whenever you cut, the next shot has to pick up from where it was left no matter what the camera angle is. Match on action makes sure that the same action and pace is kept from shot to shot so that it looks realistic and continuous. For example one person maybe sitting on the right then in the next shot they may be sitting on the left. Match on action make sure this doesn’t happen so that the scene looks realistic
Shot reverse shot is a film technique wherein one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking "back" at the first character. Since the characters are shown facing in opposite directions, the viewer assumes that they are looking at each other

Homework on Horror film
This shot shows a women in water with the head of a skeleton. it shows horror by having something scary in it which normally happens in scary films. The shot is taken from the front so it shows the whole of the skeleton head and it shows how the women is feeling. the camera is put put at the level of the water and the image is an upward image. The camera is zoomed up on the persons and the skeletons face to make the scene seem more scary to the audience. We can't see the skeletons eyes so we are likely to be more scared of it. the scene is scary because of the face of the skeleton and the face of the women. the womens mouth is wide open and it seems as if she is screaming out for someone to help her. the skeleton looks as if he is going to kill her
