thriller analysis

The opening sequence that i have chosen is Terminator 1.

The sequence starts with a slow pasted Sci-fi tune with blue
futuristic lines passing across the screen. I then starts introducing
the characters stars. The are introduced with a futuristic green
typing font. After the characters are mentioned it changes to all
the other people involved in making the film. The music's tempo
increases with the more people that is mentioned. This opening
looks as if it could be a conveyer belt with the blue lines and the
music. By the end the video the blue lines turn into the word
"TERMINATOR". This is like a conveyer belt's finished product.


story board for our continuity exercise

when we began filming for or continuity exercise we used our story board as much as we could so that all the shots appeared as they did in the story board. in or group of 5 we all shard the time spent on drawing the story board.

james bond opening title

this is the opening title for the james bond film casino royale. it begins with the main actor daniel crag shoting a bullet into what seems to be the barrel of another gun, this gives you the idea that he has just been in a fight with another man. Still with the shot of the barrel blood starts to poor down the screen, but in this scene the blood that poors down looks very unreal and cartoonish. When the screen is fully red the 1st title name comes up on the screen, a few seconds later hearts start to shoot on to screen. the hearts appear in the same style as hearts from a playing card. Whilst this is happening more names are appearing on screen, then more symbols from playing cards appear. it then cuts to a shot of daniel craig sat down on a pattern. the shot of craig is in black and white whilst the rest of the screen is in color.

treatment

Treatment

At the beginning of our movie we start with a black screen that fades slowly into the 1st shot our heros head. The 1st shot is a low angled camera angle that is zoomed in on what appears to be a a mans big heavy brown boots. The boots seem to be getting dragged along very slowly giving you the impression who ever is wearing the boots is hurt or is injured. There is then an extreme close up on the laces and toe of the boots when you see a drop of blood land on the she. This now shows that the person wearing these boots is definitely injured and bleeding. The camera then zooms out to see a mid-shot of the mans feet and legs still not revealing his face. Behind the man you can see that there a lot of trees and there are leafs falling all around showing that the man is in a woods. The background is also slightly blue and misty, this shows the viewer that the weather is cold and slightly bleak. The camera then pans behind the man showing where he has walked from and there are lots of trees all around and just in the distance you can see a very slight figure of a house with smoke coming out of the chimney. There does seem to be a track to where the man has walked from but doesn't seem to be anything there apart from the trees and the house. The camera then pans back to the man to show a close up of his face, he seems to be very sweaty and hot and there seems to be a look of worry in his eyes. This makes the viewer wonder what this man has done and has he anything to do with the house in the background. The man appears to have a large cut just above his eye. There is then a mid-shot of the man turning around. And you see the same shot before of the trees and the house but this time there seems to be a man there in a dark hood with black trousers the rest of the mans face is covered up by some sort of scarf but you can make out his eyes. You then see an over the shoulder shot of the man in the dark hood looking down the woods towards the other man, still with an over the shoulder shot you just see the man turn around and go to run away from him. There is then another mid-shot of the mans legs and feet running away and the music starts to slowly creep in. The music is a low humming noise with a drum bat in the background with the tempo slowly getting faster and faster. In the background you can still slightly hear the rustling of leafs and deep breathing. There is then a shot of the man running towards the camera when he trips up on what seems to be a log. You then see another over the shoulder shot of the man in the dark jumper but this time he is looking down at the man looking face upwards on the floor. The music then stops dead. You hear the man saying no and begging him. There is then a shot of the woods and all you hear is a loud scream then screen gos black.
