Napoleon Dynamite What we like about this opening credit sequence is how food and other everyday objects are used to display the credits. We would like to use the objects you would naturally find in the areas we film to integrate our credits, examples could include; spelled out in cereal, inside a notebook or even on a road sign.
School of Rock This opening credit sequence is full of integrated credits during a continuous shot. What we wish to achieve is our credits to be integrated in our set much like the posters in this clip. The continuous shot creates a smooth and fluid opening, we wish to use this technique in our first scene as we focus on our characters desk, zooming in and out of credits present on the table.
We have decided that our idea about the brothers lost its drive through a multitude of reasons including the ultimate factor that not through fault of trying we have been unable to find a parkour actor who was able to participate. Another issue we came across is that the residential area does not fit the fast paced action sequence that we were looking for, due to the fact the area is surrounded by houses, grass, and trees which is not ideal. Instead we have found a mostly empty car parking structure in Tunbridge Wells town center which has a more urban feel to it and an industrial look. From this, we have modified our idea so that there is only one main character. Its begins in their bedroom when suddenly a text message appears causing them to rush out the door and into a fast paced running action sequence through streets and into the car park, before reaching a lift. They then enter a lift and finally takes off their hood to show long hair fall down which subverts the viewers original assumption that the character was in fact a boy. We then wish to incorporate a sense of comedy at the end when an old lady interrupts the intense scene and joining the character in the lift. Colour Palette
We first re imagined our colour palette, as you can see the colours are a lot darker and more niche than last time. This is because the overall feel of our new idea is set in a more urban area compared to our original residential feel. Also there are a lot of tones of blue tones as the bed room scene will involve these stereotypical "boy" colours in order for the viewers to make assumptions.
Sound Palette We recreated our sound palette to match our current idea. However, some of the sounds are the same as they worked well with both ideas.
