Title Research: 7 Millionaires

 -What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?

 While the opening sequence was made to set a glamorous tone for the movie it also left an opportunity to add some credits at the beginning of the movie. After some credits were shown with the animations that showcase the theme/genre of the movie with the board game concept it shows the title of the movie in a glamorous way. 


-What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?


The inspiration came from Cluedo and Monopoly. That's why the creators developed a board game concept for the opening sequence. This creates an image for the audience of the movie they are about the watch. 


-What connotations do these images carry?


All the golden pawns you can see in the animation represent the personality aspect of the various characters.


-How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? 


7 Millionaires is a Swedish comedy about a mansion packed with people fighting each other over a huge inheritance. The feeling of the genre is established by the aesthetic of the opening sequence. 


-What strategies are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience?


The production company was a bit worried about plot spoilers. To avoid the problem, they designed them in a subtle way. By just hinting at events or traits that could be fully understood only by the end of the movie. This method ensures a way for the audience to want to keep watching the movie.


-How has technology been used effectively? You want to consider camera angles, transitions, and editing techniques.


The opening sequence was mainly animations so there were definitely a lot of editing techniques being used to match the aesthetic of the movie.

Comparing Le Jetee, the short, and 12 Monkeys, the full-length movie

Image
  In order to research and prepare for making my short film, I compared a short called Le Jetee and an article that describes 12 Monkeys. Le Jetee is a short film and 12 Monkeys is a full length movie based off of the film. My original google search gave me a description of Le Jetee and I think I will like it a lot. Short Film: To be brutally honest, Le Jetee left a mediocre impression on me. I like the foreign feel of the film and the introduction felt like where I got the bulk of the information. It was hard to process everything after the introduction, to be honest. There was so little and so much going on at the same time if that makes sense. There were images throughout which were kind of confusing but it made a bit of sense after I looked up how old this film was. I really didn't get the plot other than the parts with like time travel and Paris. It may have been a dystopia but I couldn't really tell. This might help with my mystery genre with the style of Le Jetee. I want
