The document discusses genre analysis and auteur theory as ways to analyze films. It uses Nick Lacey's five elements of genre (character, narrative, setting, iconography, and technical/audio codes) to categorize the film "A Walk Among the Tombstones" as an action/thriller genre film. It also analyzes how the film's director, Frank Scott, follows genre conventions rather than demonstrating an auteur style. In contrast, the document discusses how Christopher Nolan can be considered an auteur for his non-linear narrative style in "Inception" that goes against conventions. It provides examples comparing the action films "Skyfall" and "Leon" to illustrate how one follows genre conventions for commercial
The document discusses title sequences in films and TV shows. It examines the genre conventions of coming-of-age movies like Juno, Napoleon Dynamite, and Mean Girls to inform the creation of an original title sequence.

The magazine Kerrang targets 13-24 year olds interested in heavy metal and indie rock music. This is evident from the dark coloring and comic book style of the cover that appeals stereotypically to males in this age group. The low price of £1.89 also indicates the target market cannot afford much, placing them in social groups C1-E. The magazine layout follows the Guttenberg design theory with important elements like the masthead and band photos placed in the primary optical area to attract readers' eyes. Kerrang's masthead uses an onomatopoeic name and cracked font to represent the loud, grungy rock music genre.

Format: one minute title sequence for movie.
Coming of age family drama- looking into and researching a variety of movie genres and title sequences that accompany them- recurring themes and conventions, use of colours, styles.
Decided to go against conventional genres to avoid copying existing sequences- horrors/comedies.
Juno, Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club and Napoleon Dynamite-noticed they were quite quirky and funky looking.
Decided to do something that would reflect values of movie.
Initial thinking: centres around set of parents and there children, exploring family life and daily battles- disputes, dating, alcohol, school, chores, priorities, caring, love.
This is what I’m aiming to reflect- representation of everything family life is about.
When I envision my sequence this is what I see- close up shots of objects that reflect home.
Although it’s about coming of age family drama, we all have loving home, that’s what I want sequence to convey.
Objects I’ve chosen to use are what I associate with my own home.
Transitioning between shots will be basic cut edits.
Actual shots either still or short pans.
Lighting from natural sources such as sunlight and bulbs within the house- wholesome feel. Rather than artificial and staged.
Song- ‘Home’ by Gabrielle Aplin.
Purpose it to signal start and set mood, also provides acknowledgement to all involved in production.
Therefore one of most important elements.
Need to be visually stimulating to grab attention whilst setting tone and reflecting theme of movie.
Own home- kitchen, chalk.
Nature of sequence and genre of movie it will be representing.
Demographically- working class people within band C1 to D on the social scale.
This is based on research into TV shows with similar themes- Modern family, The Middles, The Fosters- ABC figures.
These are the sort of people that’ll be able to relate to the themes the sequence is conveying.
Capturing footage with Nikon D3100/tripod.
Upload, sort through it, delete unwanted/useless footage and stabilise if required- adobe after effects.
Editing in Adobe Premiere Pro- placing footage in desired order, trimming down to desire length- rough edit.
Begin to edit properly.
