  Location- Our movie location will be at our group member Pedro Ribeiro's house, his house allows us to fully carry out our script for the movie and it is overall the perfect set for this movie. Additionally we will film a scene at a walmart/target. Participants- The participants of this movie will consist of our whole group of: Pedro Ribeiro, Damaine Thomson, Nicole Tarantino, and Jordyn Jackson. Another participant will be Pedro's sister who will be the camera man for certain scenes. Health/Safety- For the sake of having the most safe and protected filming environment our group decided that we will wear masks the whole time besides when filming, additionally after every filming session we will get tested for covid-19. Lastly to further ensure our safety we will have a first aid kit on the premise the whole time while filming. Schedule-  We will be filming only a few amount of times since we assume that we will get the movie done fairly quickly. our main filming dates will be

Title Design

  The opening credits of our film will be in a regular based font such as "the Georgia" font, at a bigger size. The titles will fade, and grow into our different scenes. For example, while we are in the car, in our first scene, the tiles will float and fade into the corners of the frame. This will only last for about 5 seconds, since it is small and short, I believe it will be enough time to read what is being shown. Also, our titles will be in a transitional color. To better explain, in the beginning the color will start off as black, and as the film intensifies it will transition from a light red into a dark red, meaning it reaches its final destination of the entire film. This will also add guidance of the progression of the show. The only font that I would want to have HUGE is our title of the movie, everything else I would like to keep in a regular size, so that it doesn't take away from the overall ambience of the clips that will be in the background

Title Design Research: Muse

   1. In total, there were 24 titles displayed ranging from producers, actors, music producers, and especially the director. 2.The imagery in this title sequence gives us the viewer a sense of suspense and its puts us in the edge of our seat. The sequence also tells us that the following scene will be dark and somewhat gloomy, which means that the title sequence did its job. 3. Although a little vague it is identifiable what the genre of the movie is by the tittle sequence, its drama. The non diegetic sounds they played throughout the sequence is a big identifier of the genre because the music is used to set the mood and the song used gave a dramatic mood. 4. Between the title sequences there were some shots that showcased creepy looking creature walking around some basement of some sort, these shots added to the suspense and drama theme they were going for with the title sequence.

1 . How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which one? - During the title sequence of the film there are about 33 titles displayed within this part of the film. There were the name of the studio, name of production companies, the actors names, the film titles, who the music is by, who the film was edited by, the producer, and who it was directed by. 2. What connotations do the images carry? (How do they make you feel) - The overall vibe of the images gave the audience an eerie feeling. They were full of gore and of strong connection to what the film may be about. 3. How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset? (Can you tell what genre the film is) - The genre I got from just looking at the title sequence is something crime/ thriller related. After looking at the actual genre, it was a thriller movie. It had a very eerie feel to it throughout the film, but it was not horror with blood and killing, but there were a lot of n
