Conventions In Film!

my main reseach idea is to look at conventions used with in films and methods of exploiting or ways in which it can be broke to still gain the required result, this is an example from the horror slasher 'scream' which explains some of the conventions used in horror in a tongue in cheek way!

Title sequence ideas..

I have being thinking today about ideas for the up and comming title sequence work, i have come up with an idea I would like to try out it envolves using stop motion and pixelisation scenes using action figures to act out some of the important scenes from the film I will doing sequences for, whilst this is in the backgroup the opening credits will be simply edited over with a music score to match, in order to make this work I feel id have to choose a light hearted film so that the use of toys will work well with it.

here is an example of scene I found using robocop and terminator figures...

Title sequence ideas..

Being thinking today about a few ideas for my title sequence, im quite happy on trying out and idea were action figues define and act out some of the major parts in the film, whilst names and credits are displayed. It will work best with a film choice which is light hearted, i will intend to use pixelisation and stop motion to make it work.

Here is an example i found which uses terminator and robocop characters...

Here is an example of a track that could be used with the films.
