AICE Media Studies

 Here is my storyboard, hope you enjoy it.

 Pitch A: A person chilling in their house listening to some music and making food, until they spot a person in their backyard. He gets in and tries to kill him, they run to the forest and the guy gets tricked and bleeds out. Pitch B: Two robbers break into a person's house, not knowing that they're a psychopath and plans to brutally murder them. Discuss pitch A: I would be interested in making this film opening because it seems like a simple yet effective opening to a film. This was the first scene that I thought of when I heard we had to make a film opening. I have many ideas on how this scene could go with multiple alternatives. I already know of some places we could film this and how we would go about it. I think this would be a great way to open a horror movie and I would love to film this idea. Discuss pitch B: I would be interested in making this film opening because it would be a interesting and unique way to open to a horror movie. This is a scene that I had put a litt...

 Schedule: Our schedule will be pretty tight, and time will be limited. Our goal is to complete filming all scenes of the beginning of the film in a single day before we have to go home. The setting of it will be at night time and in close proximity to a friends house, so we are operating on their time mostly as well. The good news is, the sun sets early at this time of year so it shouldn’t be too much of an issue. The goal is to get all of our clips in by 10:00PM which is certainly manageable for only 2 minutes of footage. Locations: Hampton Pines Park in North Lauderdale will be our choice of location for our film. The all footage of the opening scene will take place here.  Actors: Jayden Capuano will be one of the actors. He is considered a good candidate to be the antagonist in this movie considering his stature and mannerisms. He also has experience in elementary school. This school is called PS69Q “School of Performing Arts”. Myles Hendee will most likely be the main or ...

 The opening credits will appear digitally on the screen, showing up after a cut from each character or location except the title and the director which will appear in the opening itself. The credits for the movie will be shown based on the amount of work done and overall impact to the opening.  Our working title is "The black Forest incident" The font we'll be using will be "Impact" with a bright red text to make it distinguishable from the background. When the scene opens the first few titles will be shown, staying for around 5-10 seconds each before fading away, once the action picks up and the camera cuts to a specific character or location there will be two for each section staying and leaving the same as the others The title and "directed by" will be shown in the opening rather than appearing on screen like the other title, near the end carved into the ground, spelt out by a pool of blood or something like that.

 What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? The movies writer and director, the movies producers, executive producer, Co-producer, the creator of the game the movie is based off of, song writer, music maker, director of photography, editor, production designer, visual effects maker, creature designer, special make-up and creature effects maker, costume designer, the main actors, title card, the production studios name, collaboration studio's name, who is presenting the film, the films owner. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence? The image of mannequins in weird angles and morphed is displayed throughout the opening sequence. They are doing things that medical staff would typically be doing in a hospital however, in a more graphic and putrid way. The color throughout the opening sequences is very dark and gritty. How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the title? With the dark gritty color and strange mannequins, it creates a sense of conf...

 For this blog, I selected the website "artofthetitle.com". It is a website that showcases the opening sequences of a variety of different movies. These movies being of many different genres themselves. This specific website has the opening sequences of several horror movies from several time periods that interest me. My group mates aren't exactly concerned over this as they already have an idea in mind on what they want to do as in era of horror movies they want to try to replicate in our opening scene. However, I want to appreciate all of them as this website does. It takes into account many eras of horror film and I would like to choose inspiration from one of them. There are many different factors that differentiate and distinguish artofthetitle from other websites like it. This website creates a yearly list of the Top 10 opening scenes of movies.  In total, there are about three thousand opening sequences of films on this website.
