Title Research: The Final Destination


1. What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?

The opening sequence immediately starts with the title of the movie. The sequence then displays a series of names. However, none of the names have a title to them. Next, we see who was in charge of the casting. Then the costume designer is shown. Next we see the associative producer and visual effects supervisor. We then see who was in cgarge of the music, as well as who supervised the music. It continues to show the co-producer, who edited the movie, the production designer, the director of photography, a list of the executive producers, the producers, and who wrote the movie. Lastly, the director is displayed dramatically. 


2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?

Throughout this sequence, the creator prioritizes scenes from the movie. For example, Someone was hit by a bus in the movie, so that was one of the images used to show a title.


3. What connotations do these images carry?

The connotations received are feelings of suspense and slight fear. Though these aren't the actual scene, the graphics are very visual. 


4. How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset?

The graphics used during the opening sequences create many feelings associated with thriller. The main feeling is suspense. There's many grim scenes such  as a pole going through someone's skull, someone being sliced in half, and someone being hit by a bus. With this, they also include some blood.


5. What strategies are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience?

Strategies used to attract the targeted audience are scenes that send chills down their spine. The scenes are very suspenseful but also a little scary.

Editing

 After my group finished, I finally was able to get work done. My task was only to edit the mall and park scene. I think maybe Dezyrae wanted to edit the house scenes. I am not sure completely sure on who did it. Editing was very easy going. It was not difficult nor complicated at all. First, I made sure to go over every scene. I wanted to see if it followed the storyboard. I only obtained the scenes from the mall and park. The process of trimming went well. I did not have any difficulty with it. I trimmed the parts that were not needed. While trimming, I kept in mind that I did not want the videos to be too long. The final task should only be two minutes. Although, I had trouble editing the transitions. I was not sure which part to trim. So, the transitions are probably very bad. I probably could had done a better job for the transitions but it costed money to get access to the different transitions. I tried to use other editing apps. Unfortunately, almost all of them required pay...

Creative Critical Reflection

1. My product uses conventions by that I clarified about the product to help readers to completely understand what my product is used for. I would say that this product is welcome to all hair types. Growing up, I struggled to find hair brushes that will not cause unnecessary damage to my hair. I have tightly coiled hair so, my hair is hard to tame. Those with the same hair type as me, or a hair type closer than it, finally know a product that is pain-free and detangles just fine. 2. My product engages with audiences by that we all struggled to find the right tools that would work for our hair. It is important for us to choose products that will work for our hair and prevent hair damage. This would be distributed as a real media text through a commercial. A commercial would do good at explaining this product more. People will be informed about how this product can work for your hair and reduce damage.  3.I would say that my production skills improved a bit while working on the comme...

Genre Research: Birdbox

  What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  An element we'll be using in our final task is intense music. We want to create a lot of suspense in our movie. So when the girl receives the texts/letters, we'll use intense music. We'll also be using the element normality. The girl is going to pretend nothing is wrong during the task. The other girls won't know anything's wrong, so they'll also be acting normal. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like? Intensity: At the beginning of the movie, Sandra is explaining to the kids that they must remain silent and alert. As she explains, the audience gets an intense feeling. Intense music/ sound motifs: After the beginning scene, there's intense music and the sound of the creature playing. This keeps the audience on their toes because it feels as if something is about to happen. Normality: While Sandra and the kids are on the water, the scene switche...
