They have the title of the movie (Fried Green Potatoes) , the special appearance, and the person who did the casting. We can’t forget the producers, the editors, and who’s the music by.

They make sure they put the production company name, who’s the film by, and what type of film it is.  In the opening sequence, there’s a commentary going on between two people in the background while someone is preparing food to cook. You also see someone maybe a woman folding the dough and cutting vegetables. I see old-time scenery with older methods of cooking.  The amount of food she is preparing tells me they are having a feast. The use of knives and craftsmanship shows this woman knows how to cook. The commentary seconds that thought where the individual explains his mothers cooking and how it makes people feel. It makes things seem more realistic. They have different cooking utensils and what is used for cooking to show the scenery more. They have a plot there already.  Someone be...

The camera and the apartments would be that neighborhood is being watched.

  The first title that appears in the majority of the films in the genre is the production company. It is usually in a larger font or in a graphic form where the title is an animation. The bold font has shadows that are dominant. A transition is used to show an image that would be used throughout the sequence. The images that are prioritized are ones that correlate with them. In the film, Whatever It Takes (2000), a photo of makeup is the main image shown. The movement of the makeup object draws in the attention of viewers. These animated images set the tone of the film as something that is lighthearted. This gives the audience an idea that the movie is probably a teen drama. It could give off the idea that the main character is a girl that is getting ready to impress someone. The film establishes the feeling of the genre by using natural lighting that gives each scene a realistic feeling. I think the interaction between the female lead and the male taking her to school could be pe...

  Watchthetitles.com is a website that uses an interface to captivate viewers with short clips of a variety of film titles. These clips helps viewers get a boarder understanding of title sequences.The film titles that were used are from various film genres. This inspired my group and I to create the perfect title sequence for our film. This website gave me the impression that the graphics also play a heavy role in how the titles are portrayed. The majority of the titles on the website had creativity that would correlate with the theme of the film. The difference between the simplistic designs and the intricate ones is very prominent. The designs that have more detail caught my eye. It makes me wonder if there is a way that my group and I could incorporate something as such or create a simplistic title sequence that would still be related to our film. I think that we should maybe create an eye-catching sequence that emphasizes the theme of our film.

Art of the Title.com is a website that shows the different titles in a multitude of films. Each film produces a different feeling based on its title frames. One could tell what type of film genre is being introduced by the way the title slide is captivated. I learned that titles of films are uniquely crafted to be in a balance within the theme and genre of the film. The size of the fonts plays a role in how the film is portrayed. The fonts utilized help emphasize a theme and inform the audience about the actors, production company, and title of the film. Within the website, the entire title sequence is played. The way each font smoothly transitions from one set of text to another is something to admire. It shows the effort and the planning that is put forth to ensure that the text is being seen by the audience. The elements of the film examples shown on the site will be put forth towards our final project.

  What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have? Diary of a mad black woman is a film about 18 years of marriage to a lawyer Charles, Helen is shocked when he announces he's ending their marriage and shacking up with Brenda. Helen retreats to the house of her grandmother Madea, who helps her destroy much of Charles' property, earning her house arrest. While Charles prepares for the trial of a corrupt client, Helen is courted by Orlando, an affectionate moving man with strong Christian values. As most dramas, it is a tale of broken bonds, heartbreak, and revenge. In our film “Life for life: A losing game” we plan on incorporating all of those and many more to produce the complete and versatile drama. The surrounding element that directly relates to our movie is the deception and anger caused by being done wrong by others. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like?
