Title Research: Split


 This is from the website "Art of the Title": www.artofthetitle.com

  1. What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? Production companies, name of the actors, the film creator, costume designers, etc.
  2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?  The opening sequence switches from the place the kidnapped girl is and the title screen. 
  3. What connotations do these images carry? The face-paced cutting between each scene is getting the audience immersed and prepared for what could possibly happen next. 
  4. How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? Non-diegetic sound is increasing the anxiousness one might feel watching this. 
  5. What strategies are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience? Since there are kidnapped girls the audience is sure to watch them try to escape or be tortured. Also the dim lighting and stereotypical creepy man. 
  6. How has technology been used effectively? The unfocused camera is a reflection of how the girl is feeling, perhaps lightheaded. The title sequence splits like the title name.

Production Blog: Back to Filiming

 Over the 3 day weekend, I used all the time I had to my advantage. I'm really proud of myself and what I got accomplished. Filiming was surprisingly easier than anticipated. Although it took longer than I expected; everything was organized and planned to perfection. I had the best lighting, no interruptions, and my cousin seemed to know what she was doing. So we also had an amazing time together filming. I honestly believe it made us closer, which is a plus. Watching the scenes we recorded together gave us the opportunity to reshoot and modify things that needed to be changed. For example, how the pillow was positioned or my facial expression. She contributed to a lot and I really think without her help this wouldn't be possible.  Moreover, like mentioned beforehand, the scene that we recorded took a long time to shoot. We spent 2 whole days on it and lucky for me she decided to spend the night. So time was not a factor while we were filming because we had all the time in the

CeraVe Commercial

(I've uploaded the video using two different methods just in case one method doesn't work.) My journey of making my first official AICE Media project has finally come to a close. From here on, I know what to expect; and this is definitely a class I have to work my hardest on. Doing this project was just a taste of what I have to do next and I'm prepared for it. With this project, I guarantee I tried my absolute best. Additionally, I want to acknowledge that I will improve my skills as well. I understand I could have made the commercial have a cooler storyline or made it slightly more entertaining. However, I wanted to follow the conventions of a skincare ad and usually, those types of things don't happen. I know for next time I should do my project however I want, creativity is key. I want to entertain my audience so they enjoy watching. I'll continue to improve by finding new techniques on how to accomplish this. (Perhaps more research could help). Also, I did a de
