I think I have learnt many
lessons throughout this task that will help me with what I want to do in the
future. I believe that this task involved research and planning, production and
exhibition that was all beneficial to me.
Research and Planning was
very beneficial as it gave me guidance into what type of title sequence I
wanted to make and how the title sequence would be structured. I looked at
several title sequence just to make sure that what I would be creating would
fit all the typical codes and conventions they share. I would then use these in
my planning for creating the title sequence. This also helped my overall
knowledge and understanding about the importance of a title sequence in a
movie. Overall I believe research and planning was very successful and I
couldn't find any particular fall back that I had made personally when trying
to research and plan the production of the title sequence. In hindsight I would
of probably researched further into cinematography used but I believe that my
title sequence was up to standard and I would of made a stronger planning log.
Production was a mixture of
ups and downs. We were faced with many tasks in production making the title
sequence difficult in parts to make. We had to find many props for the title
sequence which meant having to go to shops and find exactly what we wanted and
to see if it fit. Some props such as the globe was very difficult to find as we
wanted one a particular size and shape. We had some issue with angles and
movement on some shots which made it very difficult for us but once re-shot it
was ok. I've now learnt that I need to get fully prepared and know if i will be
able to do or get something before I have already scripted it in.
Exhibition was taken with
mixed remarks. Many people found the narrative good although slightly confusing
in parts. They disliked some of the idea's so we amended it around them. I have
learnt from exhibition that everything we do is for the audience and the
audience is most important because if the audience dislikes it will be very
bad. Now I know to make adjustments and to understand exactly what everyone
says.
