Focus Group Evaluation

Focus Group Evaluation



A big way we got ideas for our thriller beginning we made a focus group where we explained out 3 ideas to another group of people and then asked what they thought about them. We got back very helpful comments and they helped us decide what we needed to changed on our opening. The other group told us that they liked our first idea the most but we had to shoot it in a certain way to make it look good and entertaining. We will take all of the points given by the other group when filming to make our film the best we can.

Titles

Titles

All films have different styles when doing their titles and opening credits. There are different styles when different genres of films are being made. The colour's, Fonts and music determines what sort of genre of film it is. 

Seven



As you can see the colours used for the back grounds and all dark and the writing is very a very bland white colour. The font used is a messy writing, a sort of child's handwriting, the and writing is flickering on and off of the screen when the credits are changing. The music that is used is creating a scared atmosphere and this is due to the type of genre the film is.


In The Cut





The music in the opening of 'Panic Room' is classical music, which is very slow and low key. The shots are quick and they also use panning shots where the credits are on the side of high rise buildings in New York City. All the colours are very bland but the font of the credits was very large and in a silverish colour.

Brick




Brick includes camera shots that are close ups, flash backs and a dissolve. The editing shots include slow cuts and reverse shots. there is no and non diagetic sounds. The film was only shot in 20 days but a lot of planning was done before filming.

Momento

Momento included conventions such as dramatic music, a red herring, flash backs, an antagonist, low key lighting and guns. They included shots like mid-long shots and reverse shots. There was fast editing and quick cuts. There was dark scary music during the shots. This is not filmed in chronological order and could be hard for some people to understand. 

The Italian Job





The Italian Job includes a literal cliff hanger after robbing blocks of gold and escaping. This film is a 1969 British film. We are left at the end of the film with a literal cliff hanger where the coach is tipping over the edge of a cliff they was driving along.We are left not knowing what is going to happen next as the camera finishes panning away from the coach. This is all because they uploaded the coach with gold. Driving along the Alps along a mountain road but the coach ends up skidding and is hanging off the edge.

Our Proposal

Proposal
Prepared by
Rosie, Kyle & Billy

In our Thriller we will film an exctiting starting to a thriller movie. This starting will make the viewers want to watch the rest of the film to see what is going on. We will include a variety of different shots, such as fast pased shots and pan shots over the roof tops of Dagenham. Our Thriller will play on the viewers mind as you wont actually see what is happeing on the screen there will just be voices and music over our shots...this will be better and more exciting fot the viewer as they would usually create their own image in their heads, these images are usually worse than what is happening on the screen... Our thriller will leave the viewers wondering what will happen next!
