There are several types of film openings including discrete title sequences, credit-over-blank-screen title sequences, narrative title sequences, and stylized title sequences. Discrete title sequences use separately edited clips to set the mood through discrete messages without revealing too much of the film. Credit-over-blank-screen title sequences display credits over a blank screen, often with accompanying soundtracks, to establish mystery and gain audience attention. Narrative title sequences introduce the film's storyline to create a natural transition into the plot. Stylized title sequences focus on editing to immediately engage audiences through mood-setting details and style.

Camera experimentation
The document discusses camera settings used to take pictures of a necklace, including a shutter speed of 1/250 and aperture of f/10. These settings resulted in crisp, focused images where the necklace was in sharp focus while the background was blurred, creating shallow depth of field. The shadows in the images were also properly exposed, with bright areas not being overexposed and dark areas having good detail.
Title sequence analysis - Se7en
The title sequence of the film SE7EN utilizes unconventional camera angles and extreme close-ups of hands and objects to explore themes without revealing details. It focuses on a character's hands and implies the passing of time through repeated images. Sound and lyrics are used to create tension and hint at themes of religion, corruption, and sin that are addressed in the film. The sequence introduces themes but does not reveal the narrative, maintaining mystery and leaving the audience to decipher images and piece together meaning.
How to make a video look more like a film.
To make a video look more like a film, it is important to control the depth of field to keep the subject in focus, shoot at 24 frames per second for a cinematic look, and follow the 180 degree shutter rule to avoid strobing. Proper camera movements, avoiding overexposed highlights, strong framing, skilled lighting, and careful color correction in post-production are also essential techniques to achieve a film-like appearance and engage the audience.
Titles & opening sequence analysis se7en
The opening sequence of Se7en consists of a montage of close-up shots with no context provided about the setting or characters. Various investigative props like files, photos, and papers are shown out of chronological order to create tension and suspense about what is being investigated. Most shots have a shallow depth of field and are darkly lit with a dull color palette to convey danger and seriousness. Transitions like fades link the clips and the pacing increases tension as it progresses faster, indicating this will be an intense thriller.
Insomnia..
This document analyzes various shots and techniques used in a thriller film. It discusses how black and white is used to set a bleak tone in the opening titles. Blood is used as a prop to establish the thriller genre and create mystery. Long shots of desolate snowy hills symbolically convey emotion and an unsafe setting. Shots through mirrors distort reality and provide insight into characters. Close-ups of an actor's face and a newspaper reveal details about characters, themes of age and a crime investigation. Fog is used as a prop to generate uncertainty and an ambiguous atmosphere.
F stop and ISO
This document discusses camera settings including f-stop, exposure time, and ISO. It provides examples of different combinations and their effects on the resulting photos. F-stops between 5.6 and 8 with shorter exposures produced the sharpest images while larger f-stops with longer exposures resulted in blurred photos with motion.

Intro to Film: Cinematography
1. Cinematographers control light and shape it to create the filmmaker's vision. They must also operate complex camera equipment.
2. A cinematographer must choose whether to shoot on film or video. Factors include budget, desired look, distribution method, and audience viewing experience. Film offers higher resolution but is more expensive, while digital is cheaper but lacks film's look.
3. Cinematographers consider screen format, lenses, exposure, depth of field, and lighting setups to best convey the film's story and tone through the visuals. Three-point lighting is commonly used to motivate scenes.
Media glossary
This document defines and provides examples of various camera angles, shots, movements, and compositions.

Checklist for my trailer
The document provides a checklist for creating a trailer, recommending using creative shots and editing techniques rather than standard approaches. It suggests paying attention to titles, editing, slow motion, close ups, consistent design, introducing background story, instrumental music without voiceover, variety of shots in different locations, and matching editing techniques to scene mood. The titles do not need to follow standard grammar if it helps convey the story more effectively.
The brief
The document provides guidance for creating a film trailer, including introducing characters and storyline in the first 2 1/2 minutes using a variety of shots. It recommends using adjectives in titles, multiple short takes without repeating shots, and matching editing techniques like cuts or fades to the scene's mood. Trailers should showcase the film's emotions, journey, and problem through mise-en-scene and a balanced range of shots including close-ups.
Choose one trailer that you think successfully fulfils the purpose of a trail...
The document analyzes the trailer for the film "American Sniper" and how it effectively captures audience attention to encourage viewership. Specifically, it notes that the trailer uses slow zooms and eye line shots to build tension. It also uses a mix of slow pacing to give perspective and fast editing late in the trailer to build excitement. Flashback scenes provide character background while also creating intrigue. Minimal soundtrack and dialogue allow for suspense and empathy with the main character. Overall, the trailer succeeds by showing just one scene to create mystery and withdrawing information in a way that makes viewers want to learn more by watching the full film.
Camera angles and shots.
This document discusses different types of camera shots and angles used in filmmaking. It defines shots like extreme long shot, long shot, medium shot, close up, extreme close up, bird's-eye view, high angle, eye level, and low angle shots. Each shot type is used to include varying amounts of the subject and background in the frame to achieve different purposes, like establishing a setting, focusing on facial expressions, or making a character appear more powerful.

Stage lighting has multiple functions, including focusing audience attention on specific areas of the stage, setting mood through different light colors, and establishing location and time of day. Camera angles that are low look up at subjects from below eye level, while high angles look down from above eye level. Camera shots are used to show different perspectives and can include point-of-view shots from a character's perspective or bridging shots that represent jumps in time, place, or other discontinuities. Camera focus and lighting also impact audience perception through controlling the sharpness of images and placement of main lights.
The Ball
The document analyzes the use of sound, camera work, and editing in the short film "The Ball". It notes that both diegetic and non-diegetic sounds are used to add realism and create emotional effects. A variety of shots including point-of-view shots are used to show different perspectives.

Both the poster and trailer focus the audience's attention on key characters and footage details to promote intrigue around the film's storyline.
Video Production Basics
This is a quick overview of some considerations in creating video for a web journalism format. Topics include lighting and camera angle/aesthetic considerations.
Conentions of an opening sequence
An opening sequence should grab audience attention and introduce characters and genre. It typically includes opening credits, an establishing shot to set the scene, and may use flashbacks, narration, or action scenes. Production logos and non-diegetic music or soundtracks are also common. The opening establishes characters, creates enigma or questions to intrigue audiences, and sets the tone for the rest of the film.
Photography mm126
Depth of field refers to the area of acceptable sharpness in a photograph. A large depth of field keeps everything in focus, while a shallow depth of field emphasizes a single subject by blurring the background and foreground. The aperture size determines the depth of field, with a smaller aperture creating a shallower depth of field. However, using a smaller aperture allows less light in, requiring slower shutter speeds which can cause blurring from camera shake. Focus stacking takes multiple photos at different focus points and layers them to extend the depth of field when a single shot is not possible.
Under the skin
The opening scene of Under the Skin features minimal cinematography and editing to slowly zoom out from darkness into an extreme close-up of an eye, with no accompanying sound. This unique sequence creates a sense of mystery that hooks the audience by focusing their attention on the shapes that form and questioning what is occurring, without typical opening aspects to provide context.
DD101 Storyboards
This document provides an introduction to digital storytelling tools and projects for students. It outlines a production schedule including storyboarding, animatics, motion narratives, and audio narratives. It describes storyboarding as a design system to communicate graphic events and organize scenes. Students will create storyboards, scan them into Photoshop to create animatics, then use the animatics to guide their creation of motion graphics narratives and audio editing in ProTools. The document also defines common storyboarding terms and techniques to plan animations through drawn panels, and provides resources on storyboarding language.
Shot Types:Advertising
This document discusses different types of camera shots and framing techniques used in promotional photography. It defines extreme close-ups, close-ups, medium shots, long shots, and extreme long shots, and explains how each shot type focuses attention or conveys a sense of scale, setting, intimacy, or the relationship between a subject and its environment. The document also covers eye-level shots as well as high- and low-angle shots, and how these shot types can be used to portray a subject or viewer in a position of power or imply other meanings through perspective.
Storyboarding
This document provides instructions for creating a storyboard to plan a video project. It explains that a storyboard involves planning the images, dialogue, and sound in sequence. Students should make quick sketches and notes on their storyboard to story what people will be doing and saying in each scene. The storyboard does not need to be artistic, but should plan out the order of information and images to present the content through techniques like filmed scenes, animations, photos, or narration. The document encourages students to be creative and work together in brainstorming ideas for their storyboard sections on geography, founders, symbols, texts, beliefs, history, denominations and current status of their religious community.
Feedback from draft 1- Group 7
The document provides feedback on a film draft, praising the identifiable protagonist and antagonist and use of soundbridging technique, but noting overall narrative was poorly presented with significant jump cuts, inconsistent volume, need for improved lighting and location, more convincing makeup, and a more concise beginning. It suggests either simplifying the plot and building tension and suspense or making the improvements in the areas for improvement section.
Packages-FromtheReadings
The document provides tips for creating successful news packages, including emphasizing strong video and audio elements, organizing the story cohesively, and using stand-ups strategically to open, bridge, or close sections of the narrative. Stand-ups should have the appearance of live reports but can be recorded in advance. The document also discusses achieving a conversational style through careful preparation, communication on shoots, and writing techniques like using personal details and surprises to engage viewers.
Conventions
This document outlines conventions for camerawork, editing, sound, and mise-en-scene used in horror genre films and promotional materials. It discusses using establishing shots, close-ups, and over-the-shoulder shots in camerawork to introduce settings and draw attention. Editing conventions include slow and fast-paced cuts to set atmosphere and build tension. Background music, sound effects, and dialogue are used to set the scene and evoke emotion. Mise-en-scene features include low-key lighting, props relating to the storyline, and costumes representing the genre through use of dark colors. Posters, magazines, and other promotional materials also make use of these horror conventions.
How to Take Incredible Pictures
The document provides tips for taking better pictures without professional equipment. Some key rules include being aware of lighting conditions and avoiding too much sunlight through windows. Taking photos from different angles and distances can improve the composition. The main focus of the photo should be the subject, whether it is a person or object. Backgrounds and foregrounds should not overshadow the subject and the photo should not be cut evenly into thirds.
Mise en scene & lighting
Mise en scène refers to everything that appears in front of the camera and includes costume, lighting and color, actors, makeup and hair, props, and setting. Lighting can be high key or low key, with high key creating a naturalistic effect and low key emphasizing shadows. Film noir often uses low key lighting known as chiaroscuro lighting to create strong contrasts between light and dark areas that suggest mystery and a darker side to characters. Mise en scène contributes to our understanding of characters, settings, and themes through visual elements like costume, lighting, props, and settings.

It outlines several techniques directors use to entice audiences and establish elements of the film in the opening, including showing studio logos, presenting titles and credits, establishing genres and characters, introducing themes/topics, using narration, sound, enigma, flashbacks, establishing shots, and action/chase scenes. The document provides examples of how each technique is typically employed in mainstream film openings to appeal to audiences and set up key aspects of the narrative.
How did you attract
The document discusses how the opening film uses genre, narrative, and style to attract and engage its audience. It establishes suspense and builds questions through genre elements like a door handle turning and silhouette shots. It also uses changes in narrative tempo from slow to fast to create suspense. Additionally, the style of the secret agent character in costume generates audience interest in his role.
Conventions of a film opening
In this presentation I go through what I think are the main features of a film opening. Please enjoy.
Film trailer paranormal activity textual analysis
The trailer for Paranormal Activity uses techniques common to the horror genre to create mystery and tension. It shows scenes of a cinema audience reacting in fear to the film, leaving the viewer curious. Point-of-view camerawork and diegetic sounds put the viewer in the characters' shoes. Fast editing, dark lighting, and minimal music build an unsettling atmosphere. These techniques, along with an ordinary family setting and enigmatic title, entice viewers to watch the full film for answers.
Conventions of an opening sequence
Slow paced editing, establishing shots, and titles are commonly used techniques in opening sequences to introduce the audience to the film's characters, location, and genre. An example is the opening of Panic Room, which uses slow editing and establishing shots. Titles also typically display the director and producer, often in a font style reflecting the film's genre. Establishing shots and introductions of settings aim to familiarize viewers with the important locations and atmosphere. Close-ups can indicate characters' emotions to engage viewers early on.
Audience
The document discusses how the filmmakers attracted and addressed their audience through their creative choices. They used young actors to make the film more relatable to younger viewers and involve older audiences who may worry about the young actors' safety. Ordinary back road locations were chosen to create a sense of realism that audiences could relate to. Eye-catching camera shots and effects, like having antagonists appear from nowhere, were employed to hook viewers' attention throughout the thriller.
Purpose of an opening sequence
An opening sequence serves several important purposes. It establishes the characters, location, mood, plot, and genre of the film to help audiences understand what they are watching. An engaging opening sequence with strong visuals can excite audiences and make them want to continue viewing the film. However, a boring opening with just a few shots and dialogues may cause audiences to lose interest and think the whole movie will be dull. An effective opening also leaves audiences with questions to be answered by watching more through the use of enigma and cliffhangers.
Paranormal activity trailer analysis
The trailer for Paranormal Activity uses found footage style camerawork and focuses on building mystery and tension. It shows footage of a cinema audience reacting in fear to something happening on screen but does not reveal what they are seeing. This is meant to intrigue viewers and make them want to find out the source of the audience's fear by watching the film themselves. The trailer also uses darkness, diegetic sounds like screams, and unexplained visuals to create an unsettling atmosphere and enigma around the plot of the film.
Chosen Film
The document discusses the filmmaker's idea for a found footage thriller film about a home invasion. It will start after the invasion when characters find the camera and view footage of the events. The film aims to build suspense while feeling realistic. The genre of thriller was chosen due to limited budget and filming techniques for suspense. Handheld camera work will establish the found footage effect, with some steadicam and CCTV footage. Editing will include discontinuity and vary cut speed. Mostly diegetic sound and limited music will be used. There will be four characters and small online distribution targeted towards young adult audiences.
Codes And Conventions Of A Documentary
The document discusses various techniques used in documentary filmmaking, including interviews, voiceovers, montages, and editing. Interviews allow filmed subjects to speak directly about events and give the audience a sense of realism. Montages convey ideas visually through sequencing shots in a specific order. Documentaries also make use of archival footage, reconstructed scenes, soundtracks, camera angles, and straight cuts in editing to engage audiences and present information persuasively.

Teaser trailers are typically shorter than 90 seconds and are meant to excite audiences about upcoming films without revealing full plots or stories. They establish main characters and relationships through carefully selected shots and footage. Dramatic music, camera angles, dialogue, and voiceovers are used to build atmosphere and intrigue viewers without giving away too many details, ending in a cliffhanger to generate anticipation for the full film.

Evaluation q5
The document summarizes how the title sequence for a supernatural horror film addressed its intended audience. It used female protagonists, mysterious shots without full views of faces, lack of dialogue, and isolation to intrigue viewers and encourage speculation. Shots were cut together quickly and included close-ups to build an unsettling atmosphere. Dark choir music, whispered incantations, and diegetic sounds heightened tension without loud startling noises. Settings appeared isolated in dark rooms or alone in nature to invoke fear. Props related to witchcraft completed the mise-en-scene.
Script final
Three women are connected through a mysterious book of shadows. Viola draws a symbol on a studio floor while Diana finds the same book in a park. Both women explore the book's occult pages, with Viola stopping to examine photos and coughing blood onto a page depicting The Horned God. The film cuts between the two women and Viola's completion of a pentagram symbol, ending with the book's page turning by itself as candles around the pentagram are blown out.
Script
1) An old woman named Viola draws a symbol on a concrete floor at sunset while a young woman named Diana walks alone down a dark street.
2) In a dark room, Viola lights candles and searches through an old book, finding illustrations and photographs.
3) Diana continues walking as night falls, becoming frightened, while Viola completes drawing a pentagram symbol outside and stands back to observe it.
Shotlist
The document provides a shot list for a film scene depicting an old woman drawing a pentagram on a door with chalk while searching through an old book for a spell. As she reads the book, she begins coughing up blood before angrily throwing the book off the table. She then opens a box on the table containing trinkets and a family photo, which she takes out and strokes the daughter's face in the photo while smiling. The shot list ends with her completing the pentagram and the scene cutting to black before showing the title.
Horror themes:narratives
The document discusses common themes in supernatural horror films, including the exploration of religion and spiritual elements, as many faiths recognize the existence of supernatural worlds. It also discusses how isolation is frequently portrayed through abandoned locations like haunted houses to inflict a sense of fear in viewers. Religions are seen as providing protection or guidance, while supernatural beings are often viewed negatively.
Interviews
The document summarizes interviews with two people about their views on horror movies. Person 1 said they sometimes enjoy horror movies for the tense atmosphere but find many too typical. Their favorite subgenre is paranormal horror involving ghosts. They disliked their last movie, Ouija, for being cliche. They are scared of clowns and dogs and their favorite movie is The Exorcist, which had scenes too gruesome to watch. Person 2 said they definitely enjoy horror movies for providing an escape from reality. Their favorite subgenre is slashers for the gore. They liked their last movie, The Purge, for its surreal concept. Their favorite movie is The Conjuring for its creepy music and
Questionnaire
The document contains responses from three 16-17 year old students to a questionnaire about their horror film preferences. Person 1 is a 16 year old female who watches films once a month and enjoys supernatural horror. Person 2 is a 17 year old female who also watches once a month and prefers psychological horror. Person 3 is a 16 year old male who watches films twice a year and likes blood and gore horror. Their recent film viewings were Sinister, The Cabin in the Woods, and The Woman in Black respectively. In conclusion, the analysis states these respondents represent the target audience of 16 year old students who enjoy psychological and supernatural horror genres.
Horror directors
This document profiles three iconic horror directors: Wes Craven, known for pioneering slasher films like A Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream; John Carpenter, associated with 1970s/80s horror and science fiction films like Halloween and The Thing; and George A. Romero, best known for his gruesome zombie films including Dawn of the Dead and Night of the Living Dead that satirized modern society.
Types of film openings
There are several types of film openings including discrete title sequences, credit-over-blank-screen title sequences, narrative title sequences, and stylized title sequences. Discrete title sequences use separately edited clips to set the mood through discrete messages without revealing too much of the film. Credit-over-blank-screen title sequences display credits over a blank screen, often with accompanying soundtracks, to establish mystery and gain audience attention. Narrative title sequences introduce the film's storyline to create a natural transition into the plot. Stylized title sequences focus on editing to immediately engage audiences through mood-setting details and style.

Kyle cooper interview questions
Kyle Cooper is considered the pioneer of modern title sequences, having created over 100 title designs. According to Cooper, an effective title sequence should set expectations, engage audiences from the beginning, and create excitement. His design for Se7en is hailed for using a handwritten font that enhanced the serial killer tone. Title sequences like The Dead Zone and To Kill a Mockingbird are effective because they use simple designs that relate metaphorically to the film's story or characters. A "story based" title directly incorporates elements of the film's backstory. Well-designed titles can benefit films by providing crucial context for audiences.

Types of film openings
- 2. Discrete Title Sequence • This consists of separately edited sequences from the film. • It can be seen as a miniature film prior to the film itself. • With the use of discrete messages, this type of opening sets the mood and introduces main themes to the audience without exposing too much of the film.
- 3. Credit-Over-Blank-Screen Title Sequence • This is a title sequence on a blank screen with the credits. • Soundtracks are usually used to accompany the titles. • This is effective in establishing an element of mystery and gaining the audience’s attention.
- 4. Narrative Title Sequence • This is used to introduce the narrative of the storyline of the film. • The film fits in with the narrative; creating a natural transition into the film plot.
- 5. Stylised Title Sequence • This type of opening focuses on editing in order to set the mood. • The audience is immediately engaged with the details and style of the film due to the significant influence of editing.
- 6. • My favourite type of title sequence is Discrete. This is because, it allows the audience to engage and make their own assumptions in regards to the rest of the film. • The opening title sequence for the film ‘Se7en’ is effective in creating an enigma that keeps the audience guessing. • The mise en scene in the opening does not reveal much about the narrative. However, it does suggest some hints relating to the storyline. This creates a tense and mysterious atmosphere for the audience as is evident through the use of low-key lighting, dangerous objects (needles and blades), disturbing images, and so on. • Camerawork is essentially what increases the suspense due to the consistently short shots and close ups. This encourages audience observation while building tension as not much is revealed.
