Editing:

In the opening sequence there are mostly cuts used. The Text appears and disappears one letter at a time making it look like sci-fi/fantasy like. The cuts are used so the continuity looks good.

Sound:

There is both diegetic on and off-screen zombie noises clearly showing the genre. It starts of with a commercial with a little girl talking, and lullaby music playing, small girls are often used in horror movies, as the commercial is playing you hear zombies. When the title sequence is playing whenever titles pop up you hear a futuristic computer sound. When the news reporter is talking they talk about a zombie outbreak and people being infected.

Evaluation:

Throughout the opening you clearly see what genre it is as zombies are mentioned and seen. They establish that people know about zombies before the outbreak happens and fans of the game will be happy to see it holds the story of the game as well as giving a good description of what is happening so the audiences that haven’t played the game know what it’s about. They also use what looks like a gopro shot when the zombie and the main character is holding the gun.

Production Co: Euforia Film, Barentsfilm AS, FilmCamp, Miho Film, News on Request (NOR), Yellow Bastard Production

Synopsis: A ski vacation turns horrific for a group of medical students, as they find themselves confronted by an unimaginable menace: Nazi zombies.
Intro Length: 2:50

Idents:

Euforia – Normal

Text:

In this movie there are no actors names in the start of the movie and no title sequence. The titles that pop up are:

YELLOW BASTARD PRODUCTION NEWS ON REQUEST & EUFORIA FILM – white bold text.

PRESENTERER EN MIHO FILM PRODUCTION - The Miho Film is red and bold while the rest is white and bold.

EN TOMMY WIRKOLA FILM – The Tommy Wirkola is bold and red while the rest is bold and white.

That’s the only text that appears. The movie starts of with a camera tilting down to the snowy mountains at night. 2 min and 46 seconds in the main title appears, DEAD SNOW. The color used is red but not full red as some parts are darker red and some lighter this clearly identify the bloody gore genre. The background that the text is on is the full moon in a dark blue sky.

Editing:

The only editing used in the intro is cuts. The pace of the cuts increase as the music gets more intense. The text on screen fades away, instead of cuts away.

Sound:

Throughout the opening sequence the music that is played is Edvard Grieg “In the hall of the mountain king”, this is fitting seeing as Edvard Greig is Norwegian and so is the movie. The music is contrapuntal as you wouldn’t expect to classical music in a sequence with zombies. The music is paused for a while when the woman is looking in to the forest. When the shot reverse shot is used all you hear is diegetic off-screen birds, until the zombie jump scar happens then the music starts playing again.

Evaluation:
The jump scare really builds tension as the camera focuses at something in the dark shadowy forest. It cuts back and forth to the actor and the establishing long shot of the forest. The reason for this is because the target audience expect to see zombies but nothing is happening so it rapidly builds tension and supports the horror genre. The fact that all you see in the opening is shadows running through a snowy forest also supports the genre and keeps the TA engaged.

WORLD WAR Z – Big Bold, transparent text, flashing images in text, Black background, fades to forest

Editing:

There are only cuts used in the title sequence, the pace of editing isn’t too fast except at the very end when you see the world war z title the editing becomes very fast passed so images are flashing on screen. There is a clip in between each text that pops up.

Mise-en-scene:

The clips they use are very smart as it starts of really peacefully and shows peoples everyday life as well as natural life such as animals. As it goes on the clips get more violent such as aggressive animals and talk about the end of the world. There are news clips of politicians talking about how the world is dying. At the end there is a clip of wolves ripping apart another animal.

Sound:

There is a faint sound of a heartbeat as the idents are popping up. When the text first appears you here music start playing. The music is kind of fantasy sci-fi and is something you would expect to hear in a zombie genre like Resident evil. At around 1:43 non-diegetic sound starts with a lot of news/radio reports saying “good Morning”. As the clips go on you hear the weather reports. You can hear a news reporter talk about a virus. There are clips of reality and talk shows in the middle of clips of violent acts like dolphins dying.

Evaluation:

This is a very smart intro as it explains the genre. It starts of very peaceful and rapidly gets more intense as there is talk of the end of the world and images of animals dying. The editing picks up pace as the clips get more intense. The inrto is telling us about how we are destroying the world with CO2 and other world problems. The Text is very dull but is very effective.

Sound

 The non-diegetic Christmas music starts as the working title screen is up, It continuous on as the voice over starts. Just by listening to the music and hearing what the voice over is saying you can tell the genre. When the mother opens the door a non-diegetic Christmas jingle starts playing, you also hear the first diegetic on screen conversation. As they great the voice over talks about her live, like reading a diary. When she changes clothes the music changes again to a more romantic song, the lyrics are parallel. When she talks to her uncle you can hear in her voice she is uncomfortable. You can hear diegetic off-screen chatter in the background as well as glasses clanging. When the slow motion starts classic romantic music starts playing. The second the slow motion stops the music goes back to normal. When she hears what he says about her the music changes to “All by myself”. The Music starts of as non-diegetic but ends up being diegetic.

Editing

There are mostly only cuts used throughout the hole into. At one point there is a freeze frame that then dissolves to another location and time. There are also some dissolves when she is in her room which indicates the passing of time.

Mise-en-scene

The setting sets the mood straight of with the heavy snow and winter dressed people. This tells the audience straight away that its winter and along with the Christmas sounds. The couples walking in the background gives away the genre which is romance.  The mother is wearing old fashion clothes which is backed up with the old props in the background, and wallpaper, telling the audience she is old fashioned.  You can see on Bridget’s facial expression she doesn’t want to talk to her mother. When she changes clothes you can see by her facial expression and posture she feels uncomfortable. By looking at her she feels uncomfortable around Uncle Geoffrey. When she is around her father she seems much more comfortable as does her father. Her father is holding a bottle of wine as well as smoking; these props indicate that he doesn’t want to be there. The reindeer jumper that he has on is a red flag for Bridget ruining her hopes of liking him. She looks annoyingly at her mother as her mother embarrasses her. When they are alone they both look very uncomfortable, him more than her. When she walks past them after they talk behind her back, you can see she is trying to hold it together as she is very hurt. The snowed over party hat tells the audience that the party is over. When she watches Frasier it tells the audience she is alone and has nothing better to do. As time goes on her ashtray fills up and her wine bottle empties. She is in her Christmas pajamas drinking wine again is a sign of her being alone. She starts dancing and singing for all by myself telling the audience she is drunk, also the fact that she chugs a glass of wine.

Cinematography

The movie starts off with a long to medium shot to establish the time of year, as well as the English taxi tells the audience she is in the UK. There is a tracking shot as she gets out of the car and walks to the house. When the mother opens the door it’s an over the shoulder shot. The next shot is a high canted angle. When the mother is talking to her friend the camera shot is a medium two shot. They use medium to close up shots when they are having a conversation. There is another two shot when her mother looks at what she’s wearing. There is a dolly shot zoom out to show what she is wearing. The camera moves down to a close up of her butt as her “uncle” grabs it. It cuts to a medium close up of her face to see that see feels uncomfortable. There is an over the shoulder as you see her uncle dancing. There is a medium close up of her and her father where the audience sees her facial expression and know she has a good relationship with her father. There is a hand held POV shot as the camera looks at the man. There is a POV dolly shot as the camera in slow motion moves towards the man, then it cuts to a close up of his face. There is another POV as she looks down at his jumper. There is a two medium to close up shot as they uncomfortable talk. There is a freeze frame so the target audience can see her face. There is a wide long shot as she is in the sofa smoking. There is then a POV as she watches Frasier. They us a medium shot as she starts singing so the TA can see her hand movements and tell that she is drunk. The last shot is a wide long shot as she points at the title.

John Wick is the first John wick movie, it more or less came out of the blue as there wasn’t a lot of marketing for it. It is very well made action movie from my point of view. It made a profit of over $50,000,000 and because of its positive feedback John Wick 2 is in production. The only information so far is that Keanu Reaves will be in it (Info from IMDb)

There are clear signs that connote John Wick being an action genre. The blood anchors the action genre and the video clip signifies that the movie takes place in America, it does this through the accent.

Production Co: Universal Pictures, StudionCanal, Working Title, DNA Films

Synopsis: Follows the lives of eight very different couples in dealing with their love lives in various loosely interrelated tales all set during a frantic month before Christmas in London, England.

The movie starts off with the Universal intro, then studio canal and finally working title.

It fades in to a tracking shot of a woman walking towards a man. There is non-diegetic music that starts to play. The woman is wearing a large backpack indicating she’s been away for a while. When they meet he hugs her and you can see relief in his face as he strokes her hair and kisses her. It is a medium close up and they are the only thing that’s in focus.

It then cuts to the camera zooming in and out to kids running and hugging a woman. It is in slow motion so the audience can see the emotion. The camera stops zooming when the little girls face is in focus. You can see real happiness as the girl smiles when hugging.

There is another cut to two old people hugging and kissing it is also in slow-motion and a medium close up so the audience can see the happiness and relief in the people’s faces.

It cuts again to a mother picking her daughter up and kissing her. The Non-diegetic slow music is still playing. A voice over is heard of a man talking. The VO tells the audience that the footage is from Heathrow airport.

As the voice over and music play the camera cuts again to medium shot of a mother and daughter hugging. It cuts again to more people hugging. As the voice over talks about how love is all around, that love can be mothers and daughters, father and sons, friends, etc. A video of those couples hugging appear.  After a bunch of clips at the Heathrow airport at 1:53 the VO says “Love Actually Is all around” the words come up on screen and the words fade except Love actually. The word love turns red.

The video fades to black and all you see is Love Actually. The non-Diegetic music stops as well as the VO. The words fade as a medium close up of a man is shown dancing to Diegetic of screen music. He then starts singing wet wet wets “Love is all around”. It cuts to a long shot of the chorus singing as well as the man singing. The audience know they are in a studio by looking at the props used. This is when all the music becomes Diegetic.

It cuts again to a long medium shot of the producer, and other people working at the studio. There is a continuity edit of the singer and the producer. When it cuts back to the producer it’s a medium shot and you can see he is disappointed. The continuity shot continuous as they talk about the origin wet wet wet song. Whenever the music is playing you see the actors names pop up with one letter being red witch fits with the Christmas and love genre.

You can see the producers face is filled with joy when the singer sings the write word for the third time. It cuts to the singer signing as the camera slowly moves away from the singer to a long high angle shot of the singer and chorus. The continuity shots continue as the song goes on and everyone is dancing. It the cuts at 4:02. 

The music signifies the genre and the voice over anchors the rom-com genre when he says the name of the movie. The accent anchors where the movie is set, and the airport is an iconic sign of Britain.
