title research: Art of the title, Watch the titles

 Hey, blog, so we’ve been doing some research. Specifically, about this website, we found that seems it could be a significant help. It’s called artofthetitle.com. And it’s honestly pretty cool. The site is full of information about different opening sequences of movies and films. There are a bunch of articles with information about genres and how each title sequence is tied to a particular genre. It also has information on what and how elements of the title sequence can foreshadow the kind of film you’ll be watching. I saw a plethora of movie sequences and different forms of art used to create them. My group and I have started to understand more about how sequences work, and how to create a viable one. I studied this website because I found positive information about it on the internet, and it did not fail to satisfy my informational requirement. Today I also researched another website I found appealing. It’s called watchthetitles.com. This site has a large selection of films and their details, along with the opening sequence. All the posts, or at least most of them, include information about the creation and creators of the film and people involved in the production. This site provides good background about how most title sequences become dull and general. Which now is something that my group will be able to avoid. The site provides many designers and studios to search for and from. They also have a feature that we will most likely use, it is a student project submission. The site showcases the works they believe are worthy of it. My group and I will most certainly be utilizing the information this site has to offer, it is valuable to the development of our title sequence-producing skills.

Planning Blog: Location, participants, health, schedule

  Location: Sarah's apartment building is the setting for the film. There is a clubhouse in there that we can occupy at any time of day we would like. It is very spacey and has a lot of things we can be doing in there, such as sitting in the movie room, playing pool, ping pong, and Foosball, to set the scene of everyone being together as a group. It would be a nice sight to see since the whole piece is about friends becoming lovers, and these activities can show the aspect of friends having a good time all together.  Participants: The first participant is Luke, and he is the cameraman of this film. He will be behind the scenes, doing the work of holding onto the camera. The next participant is Elton, who is one of the main characters of the short film. He is one of the friends who admits his feelings to another character. The third participant is Mallory, and she is also one of the main characters that eventually ends up admitting feelings for Elton. The fourth ...

Comparing 9 the short length and long length

Short Film: What are some of my impressions? The short film "9" is our first true exposure to Acker's creative universe. The short and to the point style of the narrative pushes a focused scope of its plot, character development, special effects, and how he goes about directing. The plot unfolds with a sense of urgency, teleporting the audience in a post-apocalyptic world extremely different from the one we live in where mechanical beasts known as "Fabrication Machines" stay. Even through a small window of time, Acker easily pushes depth into the characters, creating an emotional connection with the audience. Even as the special effects are not Marvel Universe tier, they showcase Acker's readiness to invent a visually striking environment. The directorial style is illustrated through its to the point storytelling and a touching use of symbolism, setting the stage for the full-length feature.  Full-Length Film: What are my impressions?
