Title Research: The Conjuring

 


-

What titles are displayed during the opening sequence?

Titles that are displayed in the opening sequence are the names the director and who the movie is written by. Other titles that are shown are the family names of actors that played in the movie, such as The Peron Family and The Warren Family. It also shows the companies that have made the film or partnered in helping make the film.


What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?

Images that are prioritized in the film are what I assume the victims or actual people the event happened to. The Conjuring is based on a true story so, many pictures of families I think, and pieces of newspapers when the event happened are also shown. The house of where the movie takes place at is also shown.

How does the film establish a feeling of the genre?

At the beginning of the film, the music is the first thing that is heard and is eerie. The enticing music sets the tone for the film given its a scary/horror movie. The music really builds the suspense for the movie as a whole. The black and white photos also establish some sort of creepiness given that the event happened a long time ago. The picture of the house is that it happened in is also dark which gives off a scary feeling as well

Being videotaped can be uncomfortable at times, but also funny. To get an outstanding video, we had to reshoot a lot of the scenes. We spent almost three hours filming the video which felt like a longer time. Many times, background noise or someone laughing would cause the scenes to sound off, so we would have to start over. We shot in a variety of locations across Mai'lyia's house. We filmed in, the living room, kitchen, back of the home, her room, her sister's room, and her brother's room. The laundry room and dryer in the back of the house served as the primary location or scene for the video. To add even more of an unsettling atmosphere, recordings were made at the back. We also waited to film till it was darker because we needed some darkness during the filming. Ludji wa...

Editing Blog: Things Switched

 Therefore, while not entirely incorrect, we completed the last task's filming portion incorrectly. The movie is meant to be a movie's opening scene. Rather than that, we filmed an entire short film. They gave me permission to modify this time as I had a fix request. They provided me with assistance when I needed it. But since I claimed to have Davinci Resolve, we decided it would be better for me to edit the movie. Mai'lyia captured a scene outside her home, which we were in need of. I think I will be the one to combine the footage to make it appear like an opening scene. This is done with the intention of not giving away the entire storyline or content. As I chose the fonts, I will provide the text, titles, and information about production and editing. Ludji agreed that it would be better if we skipped over the portion of the phone conversation that involved her and me. While the opening process should only last a minimum of one minute and fifty-seven seconds, this...
