The Conjuring analysis

The conjuring is the genre of horror, and I know this because in the first few seconds I can hear the eery music, which suggest that the film will be a horror and in the first few seconds we see a family picture in black and white, this is always used in horror title sequences because it tells the background story of the person or demon haunting the family. The photo shows us who the family was, they have shown us this because it is details that does not need be explained in the film. We see another family in the next photo, this tells us that the family has a connection in the film and we need to know their name as they are vital to the film.

When tit gets to the 20 second mark. We see the films director James Wan. For people who like horror films knows that James Wan directed the Saw films. so the audience will be expecting the film to be gory like his Saw films.

When showing other members of the cast, the background for them is a newspaper that tells the audience more backstory to the film as the film will not delve into the subject for the audience. This will be like my groups title sequence because we are showing information that is important to the films.

After 55 seconds we get to see the main actors name, Patrick Wilson is well known in the horror genre and for people who like horror will know that he has been in other horror films such as Insidious and 2. the characters are behind old photos, the photos could mean that the person on the photo is important to the storyline.

In the 1st minute and the 40th second we get to see the production company which is New Line Cinema, a Safran Company, Evergreen Media Group

Finally on 1 minute and 57 second we get to see the title of the film in front of the house and a hanging site. This is important to the film because that is where the film is based.

STINC Sim City

Setting: The setting of the first scene in the film title sequence is the fictional place of Sin City

Theme: The colour red indicates the theme of violence because red con-notates blood and danger. The music gives the idea of lust and betrayal because we see in the first few pictures are women and one is being handled by a man.

Iconography: the props that we see are guns, we see guns because the film is heavily based on killing and shooting. we also see a man with a gun through his eyes, this is telling the audience that death by guns is major in the film. the colour is all black and whit and the reason they did this is because the novels were in black and white and so is the film in black and white.

Narrative: The only we get to see what the film is about is by the pictures we are given and the music but sometimes the music cannot always be trusted so the audience has to guess whether to trust the pictures.

Characters: We get to see the protagonist and the antagonist in the title sequence because they are all important in the film. in many of these cases there are no protagonists.

Style: The style of the film is dark because the pictures are in black and white and the pictures shows the characters as mysterious or angry or violent and this will show the audience what he film will be about.

Napoleon Dynamite Analysis

The Napoleon Dynamite title sequence starts with the production company, just like many other films, and the use of foods to show the production company tells the audience that the main character must love their food. or is associated with food. 

We then get to see the main characters name "Jon Heder", and the name is on a "U.F.O Abduction Insurance" card which tells the audience that the main character is a big alien fans and people who like aliens are normally associated with being a geek.

The music also starts when the card is getting taken out and the music has a calm "nothing bad will happen" tune. The song also says stuff about school so we no Napoleon is still at school.

After 34 seconds into the title sequence we get to see the film name and what the Napoleon (the main character) looks like. To the audience Napoleon look like a geek because we can see him wearing glasses and having braces. This gives the audience more information about what the film is about. The audience also knows Napoleon goes to school.

We then get to see the other cast members that are important to the film. The other cast are food except the last one which is a weapon made out of tin foil, this might suggest to the audience that "Diedrich Bader" character is a violent character.

Now we get the other crew and in this case we get the "casting by" and "music by". They are on a library card that was inside the library book. This tells the audience that Napoleon loves taking books out and reading them or he wants to check when to return the book because he does not like being late.

We get to see other casts on stuff maybe Napoleon likes.

We again get to see more crew members and they are on drawings of mystical beast/people and this tells the audience that Napoleon likes to wonder in the world of make belief, maybe to get away from harsh reality.

We then get more cast members

And finally the title sequence finishes with the director and finishes with the food.
