Ever Been Scared of Your Nanny?

  Hey guys, so the next step we took in researching our title was to watch an example of an opening sequence from a horror movie. We used the website Art of the Title and watched the opening sequence from the movie "Nanny." 1. What titles are displayed during the opening sequence? The titles displayed during the opening sequence were "Amazon Studios Presents," production companies, and "a film by" (producer). 2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence? The images prioritized are of a woman laying down with a spider crawling on her face. The woman has her eyes closed for the majority of the time, until the very end when they fly open and she gasps. 3. What connotations do these images carry? The women lying down seems at first to be peaceful, however, the presence of the spider carries a negative connotation. Spider's are typically thought of as terrifying creatures and symbolize fear. The presence of the spider on the one's face can sho...

Part of the Top 10 Horror Movies We'd Suggest

     Hey guys! So the next researching step our group took was to research different movies from our selected genre and analyze them. For the first movie, we chose to look at "A Quiet Place," and we found it to be very interesting. 1. What elements (conventions) of the horror genre does this movie have?     When watching "A Quiet Place," we noticed that may conventions of the horror genre were present. First, diegetic sounds like harsh breathing, creaking, crying, footsteps, and dry leaves rustling were used throughout the film.

Nondiegetic sound was also incorporated, and like most horror films, fast paced and suspenseful music was used during climactic scenes. Conventional camera angles were also used throughout the film. For example, during a scene were the victims were running for their lives, a tracking shot...

Editing Blog: Combining the Clips

 Welcome back everyone to another blog! After many days of filming, I will finally be able to start the editing now. I've been anticipating this as all this filming can  make me a little weary. However, editing is arguably my favorite part, so I'm glad I can do something I am good at.  To begin, I figured I'd primarily use a program I am familiar with - Capcut. I'll probably end up mixing several different programs as I continue down the editing process, but for now this program will do. For the beginning process, all I did was put the clips together. This is one of the easiest steps, but obviously crucial to the rest of the editing. If the base of the video is not properly combined, then I won't have a strong foundation to build upon. I spent about 2 or 3 hours reviewing the clips, putting them together, going back, shortening, and so on. I had already swiped through which clips might work best, but now that I was actually editing, I reviewed them again to see if s...
