Research - Watching Extension 5

1.Thomas Sutcliffe means that the film needs to gain your attention straight away from the beginning, because there is no point going to watch a film if you don't instantly enjoy it. 

2. The director Jean Jacques Beineix says that the risks of instant arousal this man show all of the good bits of the movie early leaving all the not so good parts for the rest of the movie which is bad as it has to be balanced all the way through. If not the audience will get bored and may not watch the rest or they may give it a bad rating.

3. A good beginning must make the audience feel that it doesn't know nearly enough yet, and at the same time make sure that it doesn't know too little. This is to make sure they are not showing too much excitement and not too boring. For example most movies usually start of with normal discussion of the characters which can get boring and most of the action is in the middle where it gets peak.

4. A classic opening by Stanley Kauffman would be some establishing shot of the area where the mail film will be taking place. They could also video all the characters doing something else. This allows the viewers to see all the characters one by one and on every character their name should show. This makes it easier for the audience to visualize who plays which character. 

5. Kyle Coopers title sequence for the film seven is so effective because of the way the letters move on the screen this makes the whole title sequence look active. If the letters did not move and they just stayed still this would have been boring so i think it was successful to make the letters move around like that. The letters also move of the screen like they are stuck/trapped this is good as already it tells the viewer that someone in the move may be isolated in their thoughts or something. It puts many different definitions in your head.The music used is spooky. The music makes you feel scared. This is effective as i think this is what it was there to do (scare the audience) 

6. Orson Welles wanted to make the audience jump as he put an explosion in the beginning. The audience even me wasn't expecting this making me jump a little. He did this by having people acting as a norm in the society and then dramatically having a massive car explosion. 
Universal studios put title credits over the opening I don't think this worked out for me and I didn't really like that they done that. It didn't look good. I think they did this for promotion

7. Film Nior happens when the start of the films shows the end of the story line. I like this type of effect as it allows the viewer to have a better understanding of the film making them enjoy it more. However i also think that it spoils the story line for the viewer are they will already know whats going on. I guess it depends on whether u like it or not.

8. A beginning is where the viewer first learns about the  movie. If they do not have a clear understanding about whats going on in the beginning of the movie, this will stop them from potentially liking the movie as a whole. The beginning must be interesting to the reader. That's why some producers add the film Nior in the beginning so the audience are already glued to their seats
