This website is filled with many interviews with different actors. The site also includes the title sequence examples from all different genres. It shows other students projects, video games, TV shows etc.It showed me that every Director puts their own personal style under titles. I also learned some of the sequence is that certain directors usually go for. I saw some 3-D motion graphics there and it was really amazing.The website really has given me a different perspective on filming. I’ve never really appreciated titles but now I know how much work goes into it.

Hey bloggers!  My partner and I started working on the kind of designs and skills we would use in our title sequence for the title opening. Once we decided to do a thriller film. Understanding the art title sequence was the next important area focus. This led to us agreeing that we should know which ones would be best fit for the thriller film before. It’s good that we came up with one before it came time to edit. So we began to search for the perfect title sequence styles. Seeing as it would be unusual to use other genres that were not thriller. We are just researching what would be the best way to organize our opening titles. We use the art of the title website. While looking through we found some cool styles to use for thriller. The website showed so many examples that would be good to use. It showed us the different fonts that we can use to make it creative. When we started to look through the website we saw the opening sequence to a filmed call antebellum. Wejust thought that ...

Hey bloggers! My partner Misharma and I decided to talk about two Genres. We chose the comedy and romance genre. If we didn’t choose our first decision, which was thriller. We definitely would’ve referred to either the comedy or romance. Comedy is definitely my favorite genre. It makes me laugh and have a good time while watching it. Comedy is a literary genre. It has a type of dramatic work that is amusing to the public. It usually has a happy ending most of the time.The motif of this dramatic work is triumph over unpleasant circumstance. This is by creating comic effects.My partner really likes romance movies. She feels that it makes her happy and hopeful. In the strictest academic terms. A romance is a narrative genre in literature that involves a mysterious, adventurous, or spiritual story line. Where the focus is on a quest that involves bravery and strong values, not always a love interest. Romance movies usually bring out emotions. Romance movies are about finding love and fight...

 Hey bloggers! My partner and I chose to do The thriller genre. We are well educated on thriller because of our past project together. The last movie I spoke about was called dangerous lies. This movie is called truth or dare. It came out the year of 2018. It is both a thriller and a horror movie. It is a bell people named Olivia, Lucas and a group of their college friends. They travel to Mexico for one last getaway before graduation. While there, a stranger convinces one of the students to play a seemingly harmless game of truth or dare with the others. Once the game starts, it awakens something evil. A demon which forces the friends to share dark secrets. It also makes them confront their deepest fears. This has to do with both our pictures because it’s a thriller movie. Out of both our pictures it is more similar to the first one. In this movie truth or dare, people end up getting hurt and end up dying. Sometimes the deer brings them to a place where they get lost and die or mak...

Hey bloggers! For this project we decided to choose the thriller genre. In this project I will be working with my partner Misharma. We worked together in the past and it ended up well. This is why we chose to do another project together. We chose the thriller genre because at the beginning of the year we made a PowerPoint. Our PowerPoint was based on thriller movies and the genre in general. In this PowerPoint we talked about the different essential things that needed to be in thriller movies. Thriller movies have their signature sounds and props to make it suspicious and scary. Without the necessary things it will not actually be thrilled. So we chose to pick the thriller genre for our two minute clip. We chose to do it because we already know a lot about thriller movies from the PowerPoint we did. Although we liked the other genres. For example, romance and comedy. we were thinking about choosing comedy out of those two. I for one really enjoy comedy movies and think they’re very ent...

Hey bloggers! We made a genre PowerPoint. The genre we chose to do was thriller. We chose the thriller genre because it seems to be very popular and interesting. For this I worked with my partner Misharma. In this genre PowerPoint we gave examples of what will usually be seen in a thriller movie. Every genre has signature sounds and props that are used. In this PowerPoint we talked about different movies and what we usually be seen in it. In the first PowerPoint we talked about the common lighting. Thriller movies are known for a mysterious and suspicious lighting. The angle that the lighting is shining could be very essential to give it a scary vibe. In the second slide we talked about Camera angles. It is very important that they are multiple camera angles throughout a filler movie. If the camera was set up in one place the whole movie there would be no interesting or different parts which would make it boring. Camera angles are important for jump scares in the zoom in’s to give the ...

 Hey bloggers! One pitch we can up with is A friend gets kidnapped. So in order to get their friend back the two friends come together to investigate her disappearance. They do things they would never imagine including a hostage exchange. The second pitch is three witches come together to get revenge on one of the witches cheating husband. In order to think of some examples of pitches, we had to think elsewhere. For example, movies that interest us.The movies that we thought about had a intriguing plot to it. We wanted our pitch to be interesting as well. We also looked up some examples for pitches online. Although we saw a few that we like we thought it was a bit basic. So we mixed a few pitches together. Then added some of our own things to come up with the two that we had. Out of both the pitches we came up with, we decided on the first one. We feel like the plot with hostages and kidnapping would be interesting. For example, it’ll spark some thriller and horror in the users whi...
