My Opening Sequence

 
 This Is our Establishing shot including our production company. We put it at the front as they would have been our primary funders if making the film for real.




 This shot shows the one of the Marque Names which is why Hes at the start.








This Shot is to show the title of the film as the boy at bus stop gets scared by his friends.





 

 This shot shows both the directors of the film. 












This image shows the tittle showing who the film has been shot by.














This image shows the titles for two of the charactors who are in our movie.














This image shows the title for the person who done the filming for the film.














We tried to put the titles in the order of importance. This is why the name Kadeem McFarlane follows the production company because I am supposed to be a marquee name so I would have demanded to be nearer to the front of the title sequence.

Opening Movie Credits

During one of our media lessons we spent some time doing research into the opening credits of two different films, vertigo and seven. When watching the opening credits I realised the cast are placed in specific places. For example the production company is placed at the beggening of the movie. Also the director is both at the start and near the of the onening sequence this reflects the directors importance in the making of the movie. We also spoke about the actors being placed at the start because they cost the most money but they may not have been in it the most.
This was for the movie Vertigo, which was filmed in the 50's. You can it an older movie because
they include the technical aspects of the movie making, for example they included technicolor. This is something you wouldn't see in  movies today.

1st Time Editing

Yesterday was my first time editing my movie. Editing the footage that my partner an I had wasn't a problem we were easily able to cut place the footage in the correct order with the good transitions, the problem was the footage that we had. When we were going over it we realised a few mistakes in the videos for example in one of the videos we could see one of the phones we was using for light in the shot. So we are going to redo that sscene. Filming was a lot more difficult than I thought it would be because our location was outside we had to race against sunlight before it too dark which it did so we had to sop film. Another difficulty was our ability to film because our location had a lot of trees and bushes zoo getting the camera in the right place difficult due to the tress and bushes getting in the way. So too o overcome this we are going to film in another location but still use the abandoned house in our current one.

Two More Ways I Would Market My Movie...

I had already posted how I would market my movie if provided with some money to do so. If I was given even more money to market my movie there are two things i would want to spend the money on:

I would want a website as it is a easy way to advertise the movie to the world without costing to much, because its a widely used  resource. My website would have various things for the user to download for free for example wallpapers of different characters and posters. The trailer would be on the website to show the audience what type of movie it and things the could expect to see, along with that I would want a featurette to show the actors opinions on the movie and what they like about it. A synopses will be on it too to let the audience know the background of the film.
A good website to look at is:

Another thing I would spend my money is to advertise my movie on different TV channels. The way would do is by playing the trailer then show interviews with the actors. I would want interviews with different characters on different TV channels. I think this way of marketing is good because it allows the movie to be shown to variety of different audiences and the interviews about the movie would be about different aspects specific to the TV channel.
