Production log 3
I have learnt that most British Social Realism opening either create enigma or are smash mouth as they have to compete with other Hollywood movies. I also learnt this week how to look for themes which occur in the opening and see how they are established and portrayed in such a small time. I also realised this week that British Social Realism establish the theme and main characters quickly but in an effective way. I also learnt this week that the credit not only consist of the names of each important member but also if the person has a qualification for example some people who are cinematography have b.s.c next to their name. Also the graphics make the colour scheme of the picture or action behind it so they don't take much attention away from the scene but are visible to see as they are a convention of movies. Theme is a big part of British Social Realism as they base everything around it to make a film that outlines issues, we also went into more detail between the real world and British Social Realism movie. Credits consist of the institutional names and logo, main cast, title, main crew, editor, producer and director.
This will inform my production as i will as i understand how themes play a role in British Social Realism, i understand how i need to apply the theme in my opening scenes whilst having credit which are consistent and don't take attention away from the action. Looking in detail at the opening sequence of Happy-Go-Lucky helped me as it allowed me to see how British Social Realism use each second of their opening sequences. The credits play a big part in the opening so i wont make the mistake of only include 1 or 2 but the important roles played in production. Looking at sequences in lesson allowed me to see how BSR work in ways they connote themes and representation in short spaces, i will need to learn how to make my opening portrays a theme and creates enigma.
In an opening sequence you would expect to see a smash mouth or something that creates enigma to make the audience aware and interested enough to want to watch the rest of the film. Opening sequences help the audience decide if they want to spend time watching something, You would also be introduced to some or all the characters involved. A smash mouth is being hit in the face with the action from the beginning this would catch the audiences attention and get them involved, we see a smash mouth opening in.... I would use this to gain attention from viewers to make them watch the rest of the movie. Personally i think in my opening i would try and combined smash mouth with enigma to create as much tension and gain as much attention from my audience. Combined both would be effective and new.
