Reflection On Research

1. Number of titles:

• Hunger games - catching fire = 15 titles
•  Spiderman = 16 titles
• Skyfall = 23 titles

2. Number of actors:

• Hunger games - catching fire = 9
• Spiderman = 16
• Skyfall = 10

3. Roles that appear in all 3:

• Director of Photography
• Producer
• Director

4. Different roles:

•  Director of photography is the one who focuses on the lighting when filming and taking different shots. 
• Producer is the one who puts in money. If a film has only one producer then it is a     low budget film but if a film has more than one producer than it is a high budget film which means that more money has been put into it.
• Director of a film is the one who directs the making of a film.

5. The way the credits are interlinked:

• Hunger games - catching fire = First 3 titles come right in the centre and they are in white because the background is black therefore the audience can see the titles properly. We then see the lead actors names and after that the movie name appears with its Hinger Games picture at the background. The rest of the titles are also in white and they are on the opposite side of the images put on the screen so the audience can see and also because, the images are linked with the storyline of the movie e.g. and arrow, a heart and fire. 
• Spiderman = The titles are in white as it has a very dark background of many spiderwebs. the title appears right in the centre and in bold font to give it more impotence. The casting names appear with their pictures tangled in a spiderweb so it the audience can see who the actors are and also the background matches with the movie name. The rest of the titles appear with the main actors and their scenes at the background so the audience does not feel bored with just the titles and the scenes at the background makes the audience feel engaged.
• Skyfall = Again the titles are in white because the background is dark and later on it a changes to many other colours but white stands out and the audiences can see the tittles clearly. The movie name is in different font and its bigger than other titles which gives it more impotence. At the background we can see glances of what the story is about e.g. main actor falling in a pit, graveyard, guns and blood. This tells us that its an action movie.

RESEARCH : Stuart Little 2

The first shot opens with an establishing shot of New York as the titles appear to tell the audience where the movie has set. Next we see a long shot of their house which allows the audience to know that now the next scene is going to be inside the house. The long shot also helps to see its surroundings and tells us that its a clean and happy environment. Inside the house, we see a panning shot of a bedroom which pans from their bed to alarm clock which also tells us that the sound which we are hearing at the background is of the alarm clock and it gives more impotence to the alarm clock because it shows verisimilitude because that is how we usually start our day and mostly its always the alarm clock which wakes us up. Next we see the use of match on match eye line when the lead female takes her baby and opens the window. From outside, we see birds flying upwards and the camera follows them because thats where the next shot is. George's bedroom is upwards. We get another panning shot of his room and then a close-up of stuart as he wakes up. The camera is following stuart as he is coming down from his bed towards George. Later, we see a focus pull of stuart at the front and George behind which gives more impotence to stuart. the music used from the start is very happy and catching, this tells us that its a light hearted movie. Also the artist who is singing sounds very calm and the lyrics suggest that everything is going on fine. The only diagetic sound used in this title sequence is of the alarm clock and when the birds are flying, this makes the scene look more authentic and the audience can connect with it. The clothes used for everyone is usual clothes to makes it look more real. The most impotent editing in this movie is stuart and how his character is made by using special effects. His role really contributes a lot to give the editing more attention.

RESEARCH : Mission Impossible

The first shot opens with an establishing shot but it does not tell in which part of the world the shot has been taken. We then see Tom Cruise climbing on a mountain this tells us, that his character is very adventurous. In this scene, diagetic sound has been used. We can only hear his breathing and his footsteps as he climbs up this makes the scene look very authentic and makes the audience feel engaged. Later on, we see a slow motion as he jumps from one rock to another. The purpose of slow motion is for the audience to see clearly what is happening. This makes his character seem very strong and shows his bravery as he is the main hero, and the fact that he is not afraid of putting his life into danger. We see many close-ups and mid-shots of him showing his expressions and his upper body language. This makes the audience know more about him and his character. This is the time when background music starts. The music gets louder and louder as the scene progresses and it involves fast beats. The music stops when he is falling but starts again when he is safe this reassures us that he is not in danger and he enjoys such adventurous activities which we can see in his close-ups as he smiles. More diagetic sound of helicopter to make it look authentic. We then hear a voiceover when Tom is listening to the information through the glasses. We see a close-up of the glasses so the audience can see its features because it is unique technolo gy and something new for the audience as not all glasses have speakers and we cannot look through it. The only dialogue used in this opening is when Tom says "I'll let you know where I an going" this shows that he is committed towards his work and his people.
