Title research: Lady in a Cage

Hey bloggers!My partner and I continued to do title research. This time we did research on a movie called Lady in a Cage. We did our research using the website artofthetitle.com. This title research helps us because these movies are within the same genre as our film. The titles displayed during the opening sequence is the Paramount logo. When seeing this logo you notice that there’s vertical stripes. It also states the production company, main characters, and crediting everyone else involved. Then, states the title. The vertical stripes used in this opening emphasizes the idea of the cage. The images shown in this sequence include a girl rolling her skate up and down a man’s leg, a dog lying dead in the street, and cars passing by. These images bring forth a disturbing and concerning outlook. However, this is the job of the images. The images and title designs help bring forth the sense of thriller while also appealing to the target audience. People who like thriller are more likely to continue watching a film if they opening sequence entertains them. Therefore, the title design and images of this movie will help by making the audience realize the high number of disturbances that are both unsettling and intriguing. Technology was used effectively in this movie with the music/sounds and angles. For example, the usage of traffic noise was beneficial because it adds to the list of what captures the violent concept they wanted to portray. Also, the angles used when the top of the trash can went up. These contribute to the idea of the “volatile and violent” mood of the world that they wanted to show. I’ve personally never seen a movie with an opening sequence like this before. It was very entertaining and I’ve decided that I want to watch the movie on the weekend if I have the chance.

Hey Bloggers! The commercial I decided to talk about Is the iPhone. The iPhone is a popular phone line of touchscreen smartphones by Apple Inc. Each year since 2007 there has been a new and improved iPhone. In the advertisements used to promote these iPhones, there are a variety of tactics put in place. Some ads have people of all ethnicities and ages to show some diversity. This could show people that all sorts of people are able to use this phone. Another tactic is upbeat movement and dancing. When the promotion is being played and you hear a burst of great music it puts you into a good mood. A smile is always on the actors faces when shooting the promotion. This could make it seem like having an iPhone is something to be excited about. When dancing and indulging into happiness and smiling, this might persuade someone to buy the phone thinking that the phone might give them that same feeling. The music could also aim to affect the younger generation. They use popular and likeable...

I started to film on October 31, 2020. While filming this commercial there were some ups and downs. For example, my dad was supposed to help me film two of my scenes but then he had to suddenly go out of town so that couldn’t work. I tried to think of other people that I can asked to help me film. In one of my scenes a required movement and I couldn’t just prop up my phone and move it at the same time while I was the person that was supposed to be in that scene. I asked my mom if she could help me and she said yes. So in filming this blog I have to first plan out everything in my mind and what I was going to do. I thought about the different scenes and the different places that I would want to take each scene. The first scene was me showing the iPhone box which, the iPhone was the main product of the commercial. I tried to hold my phone at an angle that wasn’t showing any shadows but still had a good lighting to showcase the box. One of the difficult parts of this scene was when I need...
