Opening Sequence

Opening Sequence




Here is our completed opening sequence. After days of filming, and many hours of editing, we have finally got what we could get into a two and a half minute video. Despite taking very long to film, due to our constantly changing ideas, we are happy with what we have produced.

Rebellion - Outtakes




Along with our opening sequence came our blooper reel. With a lot of filming, came a lot of mishaps, and many of them may not be recognisable from the actual opening sequence because that was when it was more in the style of an opening sequence. Nevertheless, it came out quite funny.

Evaluation question 7: Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to your full production?


In the video above, the four members of our group discuss question seven of the evaluation.

We decided to film it in that manor so that any point we thought of would be talked about. We did this as we thought if we were to type up an answer we might leave out any good points which we thought may be irrelevant, even if they aren't.

Evaluation Question 6: What have you learnt about technologies and the process of constructing this product?



The Prezi above shows which computer software we used and how they helped construct our product.

Evaluation question 5. How did you attract/address your audience?

During the production stages of our opening sequence, we carried out a survey in which we asked a random group of people, what they would like to see within an action film, for example, gun fights, fist fights etc. After collecting our data, we were able to incorporate a few of the factors that were asked for from the group of people we asked. We managed to include a fist fight within our sequence, as well as a gun battle. These are to items that the survey participants asked for. These are the main ways we attracted our audience during the production of our opening sequence.

We also asked 2 members of our class, which songs we should use for which part of the sequence. We used one of their choices, and one which we selected. We used a slow, mellow style of music for the introduction of the main characters, which was chosen by our classmates. We selected Power by Kanye West for the main fight scene and gun battle. Kanye West is also a popular artist who's music is favoured among teenagers and young adults, who make up our target audience. We used Power as it is one of his more famous song and will be easily recognised. These were the two most popular choices for music, making it another way we attracted our audience.

Evaluation question 4: Who would be the audience for your media product?


In the video above, the four members of our group discuss question four of the evaluation.

We decided to film it in that manor so that any point we thought of would be talked about. We did this as we thought if we were to type up an answer we might leave out any good points which we thought may be irrelevant, even if they aren't. For example, our discussion of about social class could have been left out as we were  not in agreement about the topic.

Evaluation Question 3: What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why? (think about the companies you learnt about for institutions and audiences)
