Survey- final piece

A survey has been created to gather feedback regarding our final piece.

Below is the link to the survey:

Creating a survey regarding our final piece is beneficial to us as a group as it will make answering one of the exhalation questions, considerably easier.

Titile sequence

Within a title sequence, there is a particular order that is followed, in terms of when each job should be shown and who stars in the movie. 
The orders as follows; 

  • Name of the studio
  • Name of the production company
  • Starring
  • Filmed by (cinematography)
  • Sound (if necessary)
  • Editor
  • Producer
  • Director
We have followed this order so that we stick to the rule so that it is clear who the most important people within the film actually are. In our case, all titles up until the end of the actors/actresses names (starring), are on a black background in white writing. They appear using a film dissolve and when they come on and off I have made sure in editing that they appear to the sound of the audio. Obviously at this point, working with the sound, a few changes can be made, in order to create as much tension for the audience as we can.

From our research, and focusing on the psychological thriller genre, these opening credits are shown in the beginning of the opening sequence (usually within the first quarter but in only some cases the first half), as the codes and conventions of this genre show this is a normality. We have set these opening credits fairly and have explained through them the workload that has been completed by the team.

Our titles appear as below:

Name of studio
motion cube pictures presents

Name of production company
a PCLA film

Starring
Aman Dhillon
Luke Mayes
Lisa Machin

Filmed by (cinematographer)
Priyanka Chawla

Sound
Luke Mayes

Editor
Chelsea Wilson

Producer
Priyanka Chawla

Director

My Evaluation
Identifying the order of the titles, enables us to either determine whether we are following a the codes and conventions of our genre, or if we are challenging them, if we are challenging the, then why are we challenging them?
