Production Blog: Work Whirlpool



    This week has been a mess. I am now in the fourth quarter of school, and exams are right around the corner. These past two weeks have been a hurricane of work and studying and last minute assignments from teachers. I have been slammed with work, and I have not gotten to edit my blogs yet. Today is one of the first times I sat down and focused entirely on media. Normally, my mind is going one million miles per hour, but today I calmed myself down to focus on the tasks in front of me. I went to edit my schedule. I had originally planned on filming on the first few weeks of March, but I got so slammed by work that I ended up filming and editing over spring break. I went back and fixed up my cast list under "participants". 
I switched my title blog around so that it included the cast and the right names as well. Next, I went to "Location, Participants, and Schedule" and fixed the dates until the schedule had the correct dates. I still have to go through my sounds and shooting script, but that is a very time consuming task, that I cannot fix right this moment. 

    I have so much work, and no time to set aside for the sound script currently. I know for a fact that I will have everything fixed and in order by the time April 17th rolls around, which is the date all of this is due. I will just have to find the time for it. My next plan for this movie is to do two things. One, I would like to get a few more peer reviews from friends. I find multiple opinions to be very important and I like constructive criticism so that I can grow and adapt to other people's expectations. I would also like to re-read my blogs and just do a double check that all of my production blogs are set in stone and ready to go! I feel that once that is done, I will be all good!

Title Research: Jaws

Image
  From Art of the Title Website - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?
  The titles are displayed over a regular movie screen. This is one of the movies that I have seen where the titles role over the actual beginning 2 minutes of the movie. I found this super cool since it is exactly what I am doing. - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?
  The images prioritized in the sequence were actual shots of the movie. There was close ups of the characters, and shots and reverse shots between those who were in conversation. - What connotations do these images carry?
  These images actually don't carry a scary connotation, but the music does. The first scene shows a long shot and a point of view shot of someone swimming underwater. The music is the suspenseful jaws music that gets the audience creeped out. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? The outset lets the audience know what kind of show you are getting...

Title Research: Halloween

Image
From Art of the Title Website - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?
  The titles displayed here are the cast and credit names, such as "Directed by:". - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?
  The images that are prioritized here are actually semi- still pictures instead of animated ones. They include pictures of a crushed pumpkin that slowly starts to rise with each title until the pumpkin is alive and lit up through the eyes and mouth. The sequence slowly dims and zooms into the pumpkin until the screen is black and only the pumpkin eyes light the screen. - What connotations do these images carry?
  These images carry a scary connotation as well as set a theme for the entire movie. The movie's name is Halloween, so naturally, seeing a scary pumpkin come to life ensures the audience that this movie is exactly what it promises to be. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset?
  Like I mentioned before, the...
