Opening Film Task - The Forgotten.




Review:
This is the video for the opening film task. we have put our footage together, edited and come up with a logical coherence between shots. We have also added music, titles, split screens etc to meet the codes and conventions of a thriller genre movie opening. I personally think that along side the screen shots as well as the music work very well together, i think the music adds a sense of mystery to the actual film opening which is perfect for a thriller genre film opening. Also the music alongside the frames have have worked very well together. The editing has been done very well, i personally think that the split screens are very effective and adds a sense of suspence.

  1. I thought that this was a very effective opening for a film in the thriller genre, it uses music very effectively to make the film mysterious and tense, the one drawback of the music was that the transition between different pieces wasn't very smooth.

    The editing in the film was very good as it showed three things happening at once, this helped to show that the same things were happening to the characters at the same time, this helped to add mystery to the film and made sure it didn't drag on to long.

    The trailer was very good as it sucked you into the story and it ended with a cliffhanger, this was successful in making me want to know what was going to happen next and throughout the film.
