Task 28 - Media texts that influenced us

Even though this title sequence has nothing to do with our youth drama genre; we still got inspiration from it as it uses titles with motion and this exactly how we want ours to be like. It also uses music in the background to block out the sound of the scene.We would like to also add a soundtrack in the background to make the opening sequence more interesting. Also adding a soundtrack while the titles are appearing will also give the audience an idea of what the film may be about e.g. the type of film or genre of film.

Film 4 has many idents which have inspired us with how we want our idents to look. We like the way they are creative using different and complicated graphics in their ident and we would like to do something similar to that.

This scene is the racing scene taken from Fast and Furious 6. The only relevant part of this scene for our film is the camera movement and shots. We liked the way they used continuity editing and various match-cuts. We hope to use this in our opening sequence as we believe that different angle shots gives the film a bit of dynamic and makes it interesting and enjoyable to look at. We would also like to use match cutting when the main character uses and hands the usb over, as this is a key prop and we would like to make that obvious for the audience.
