Title Design Research: Action

 Venom:

1. How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which ones?

In Venom, there were numerous titles that were displayed in the opening sequence of the film. There was enough time to put each leader of every department as well as some of the actors. Such as the directors, producers, editors, and the designers.


2. What connotations do the images carry? (how do you they make you feel)

The images carry a sense that a man is possessed by some sort of demon that is ready to take anyone down in its path. From this opening scene, one can expect lots of violence and action in the movie.


3. How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset? (Can you 

tell what genre the film is)

The genre is reinforced through scary images which depict a monster which is disgusting and ready to kill.

4. What conventions are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience?

There are constant images of black and white images that show scary depictions of some demon. Which ties in to the scary main character and gory battle that goes in throughout the film. Which appeals to an audience looking for some scary action film.

       For the second project we were assigned I decided to work in a group. My group consists of Jorge Lopez, and Christian Bundalevski. I typically like working in group settings because I feel like the different perspectives help provide a better final product. Obviously, I have had group projects in the past that were not so stellar experiences but I feel as if this project will go much more smoothly. Being able to choose groups is very nice as opposed to the teacher deciding.  Jorge Lopez, I have known for many years. We first became friends in the 5th grade and stayed friends all throughout middle school. We ended up going to the same high school together and spent much of last year in discord calls together along with another friend, but that is a story for another day. I have done projects with Jorge in the past and he is very good at coming up with creative ideas. He is also very funny but not overly distracting in a group setting.  Now Christian I have also known for years. W

Editing: Experimentation

       Today was the second day we had in class to edit out commercials together. We began by having Rashawn show us what he had so far. He ended up transferring our work to Adobe Premeair cut Pro so we got to see that program too.    We then began to tinker with the lighting a little bit and ended up settling with more lighting than before. We also experimented with different sounds or music clips but we ended up staying with what we had before.    While watching Rashawn edit we all became curious about how the program he uses worked. I am learning a bit of adobe due to my marketing essentials but only the photoshop aspect. I know next to nothing of Premiere Cut Pro. So Rashawn came up with a proposal. He decided to make us a copy file and we each fiddled around with the software a little bit which was quite fun.    We used the lighting options to put a black and white box over our faces and watched some clips play by, that feature was my personal favorite. We also speed up and slowed
