Kidulthood

This is a medium-close up shot. This type of shot allows you to see the expression on the characters face. It also allows the audience to see what action is going on. Seeing as this film is a drama film, the use of this camera angle allows the audience to build up suspense as they are worried for the character that they have been following.

This is a close up shot of the character's face. Due to the close up you are able to see the emotional expression on the face. His hoodie being up gives a threatening feel to the character. This emotionally ties the audience into fearing what the character will do. This shot also gives the impression of existentialism, I would like to try and use a similar shot to get a similar message across in my film.

This is a medium-close up shot. It is also a slight over the shoulder shot. This allows you to have a view of what the character is seeing. It also allows you to see the emotion on the other character's face. This shot is normally used when there is a conversation between people. I would like to use this type of shot in my film, as I think it is effective.

Remember Me

This is a close up shot of two characters. This allows you to see what both characters are doing and the emotions on there face. This is effective in making the audience see that this is a sweet love scene. However I would not use this type of shot and position of actors in my film to show love, partly because the love I wish to show is between two brothers.

This is a close up shot of the characters face, which allows the audience to see the emotion of the character and see what they are looking at. The way the lighting is done makes the character seem isolated. The fact that the character is also looking at something out of gridded window, allows the audience to see that the character is longing for what he is looking at.

This is in a close up shot, this shot allows the audience to see the character's face and it also allows the audience to see what the characters are doing. The lighting and the actual expression on the faces allows the audience to see that this is an extremely personal and emotional scene. 

The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud

This is a close up shot, this allows the audience to see the emotion on the characters face. It also allows the audience to see the cuts. The fact that both people behind him are blurred and that the background is blurred shows that the character is feeling lonely. This effect allows the audience to better pick up how the character is feeling.

This is a medium-long shot. This allows the audience to see the setting the characters are in, it also allows them to see what they are doing. The shot shows enough detail of the face to be pick up obvious facial expressions. As both characters are doing the same thing, and one doing it very exaggerated, it gives the impression that this scene is a emotional one and that there is a strong connection between the two.

This is a close up shot. This shot allows the audience to see the characters facial expression. The shot also has the background blurred out. This allows the audience see that the character is feeling alone. The way the character is starring at something unseeable, gives the impression that the character is longing for something.

Iron Man 2

Iron Man 2 starts with where Iron Man ends. This is the last from before the titles start playing. It goes into this comic book effect due to the film being based on a comic book. This allows the audience to relate the film to the comic book. This shot is in a close up of the characters face.

This is now in the title sequence. The titles are imposed onto an animation of Iron Man. The titles move with the camera and move with the animations. This makes them more exciting to watch and makes sure the audience does not get bored. The animation in the background also allows the audience to tell what the film will be about and what will be involved in the film.

This is another title from the film. The writing is also following the animation and the camera. This makes it more entertaining. The animation allows the audience to see what will be in the film and what will be involved.

This is the last title of the title sequence. The animation gives the audience a sense of authority, as it is something to do with police. This also gives the impression of justice, which the film is also about. This makes the audience excited for what will come.

Scott pilgrim vs. the world

The film starts with the Universal logo, this is to show the producers of the film. This happens in all films. So I would have to put it into my film.

This next clip is from the begging of the film, it starts of on its own background but becomes part of the footage. This looks better and saves time. It also gives you some information about the film and what is going on. This is so less time needs to go into explaining what is happening. 

This is a close up shot on Scott Pilgrims face. The lighting is darker in the background but there is a stronger light on his face, this makes the audience eyes attracted to the character.  There is also a text box imposed next to the character. This makes the film look like in the style of a comic book. This is done because the film is based on the manga of Scott Pilgrim. It also gives the idea of a game. This is done on purpose, because its target audience is gamers.

There is an extreme close up of the mouth and microphone; this allows the audience to see that the character is singing. The background is out of focus, which makes the audience only pay attention to the singing. There is also writing imposed onto the screen. This gives the film the style of a comic book. The writing is super imposed on the screen.

The camera then starts to zoom out from the characters, and the titles are shown on the carpet. This makes the titles more interesting for the viewer.

Overview

For my media project I want the title sequence to be on the screen while there is actual film footage. This is because it makes the title and the footage interlinked, it also allows for a proper start to the film. I also think it looks better if the title sequence is incorporated in the film. Although my film is a different genre than Scott Pilgrim vs the world. I want my film to have a similar style in the way the titles is in the film.

This title is taken from the film Iron Man 2. I like how the titles move around the screen. The camera also moves around through all the animations. If I was going to do a title sequences that had to be more defined. I would follow the same sort of style because it makes the animation more entertaining to watch. 

 

This is taken from the film Days of Heaven. This is a style of title I would not wish to do. The image in the background is still and the titles are simple. This makes them more boring. However you the pictures give the viewer some idea of what will happen in the film.

This is taken from the film American Splendor. The style and animation makes the film look like comic book. The film also carries on behind the titles this means the film can carry on and not waste time with title sequences. The shot is in an extreme long shot, which allows the audience to see where the film is set.

This is from the film lady in the lake. This picture is to show who produced the film. It's very simple 

and to the point. However the titles aren't to exciting yet they are creative. The camera is in a close up 

so the writing is readable for the audience.
