Image
  How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which ones? There are a total of 29 titles displayed during the opening sequences of Code 8, including individual acting credits and individual personal titles. The first title displayed is the name of the studio, followed by associated studios, the production company’s credit, various acting credits, the credits of the casting directors, and the visual effects supervisor.

Genre Decision Blog

  My group has decided to go with a Sci-Fi blog to be our final project. This is because we ruled out a Thriller and a War movie as reasonable possibilities. Thrillers rely completely on well-constructed props, sets, atmospheres, and costumes. Accomplishing this would be very difficult for our group and very limited budget. Particularly in the case of a monster, executing this idea would be very difficult.

Convention Research Bolg - Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

  Camera Angles and Movements: In Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom there are various shots used. Some of which are extreme long shots, close up shots, and high angle shots. The extreme long shot was used to show the effects of the volcanic lava on the dinosaur’s and people in the film. Close up shots were used to show the intense emotion on one of the actors/actresses faces when a problem arose. High angle shots were used to show a different perspective on what was happening at a specific moment in the film. Mis-En-Scene: The costumes consist of a variety of clothing items, some of them are that of hunters/poachers, others are normal short sleeve shirts, shorts, pants, and long sleeve shirts. The lighting in the film is usually from sunlight, if it isn’t it is from another source such as light bulbs. Makeup is scarcely used in this movie, aside from artificial wounds such as scratches, cuts, or bruises. The acting was to convey a sense of urgency, because the characters are concerned...
