Storyboard 1

Continuity Piece

This is our continuity piece its just simple and included camera shots like "shot reverse shot". It also includes two of our group members engaging in a simple conversation.

Before filming the title sequence at the changing room showers in Greenwich we decided to do a practice shot at a nearer location. This was mainly because we needed to know the right positions to be in and the rough time it would take to film.

problem!!!

We have finished our filming and editing and everythink is complete. However we had trouble uploading the storyboard, continuity piece and the title sequence. We tried to upload to youtube but that still didnt work, were still trying to upload, hopefully it will be on our blogs soon.

Dexter

This is a clip from the American TV series Dexter, It is based on the novel Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay and adapted for television. Dexter's title sequence features a montage where ordinary day-to-day activities such as shaving, dressing, preparing breakfast and eating are used and editing to also portray Dexter's dark side. The music is very calm but in a a way sounds menacing and the camera angles are close up and captures fine detail.

Our target audience for our film, is mainly teenagers over the age of 18 because we intend to make the rating between the certificate of 16 or 18 this is because some of the scenes are for an older audience and contain unpleasant imagery. The film is for those who find thrillers enjoyable and look forward to seeing gripping and chilling horror movies.

Why title sequences are important.

Title sequences are important because they help get the audience hooked and intrigued in the film they are about to see. A title sequence is a method by which cinematic films or television gives an exciting build up to what is to occur as the film progresses. Most title sequences from the 1950's were normally illustrated, for example the artist Saul Bass used illustrations for title sequences. In the film industry, the opening title sequence of a film is considered to be the most important and intriguing aspect in the film. Apart from the marketing of the films, the title sequences are the very first images the audience sees. The interesting clips last about two to three minutes long, in which the film maker's intentions are to get the audience interested and the suspense created.

Normally if the title sequence is good and builds up tension it means the film will be even better, the film director's main intensions is to impress the audience so their expectations of film are higher and makes them want to watch the film more.
