Evaluation Task 3
Raju- ashwin and me found a opening logo on a website called videocopilot. This website consisted of many transitions and ideas. This helped us create our own one. We where going for the 3D affect as this would make our logo stand out. We both decided to call it shallow grave productions because it fits in with our logo.
Ashwin- to raise money for our film we would release the movie onto DVD. Also we would sell the film online, so users can download it rather than buying it. This would increase the money we gain from the film.
Raju- a production company creates ideas and motion pictures, TV. They may also find funding for the products they produce. We decided that our distribution company could be film 4 as it is British based and low budget.
Ashwin- A distributor is someone reliable who would get the film out there and support it fully. Film 4 would be the most reliable as they've been going for years and have already got films being produced for 2013.
Raju- the main reason why a key person was named in our titles is that they have done their own bit to pull this film together. Without the people we couldn’t have produced our film sequence.
Ashwin- I agree with raju and what he said about he contribution each person made in order to produce our opening sequence. Each person put a great deal of work into the sequence. Without the three people we wouldn’t have made a successful opening sequence.
Raju- what are the names of films that we used for inspiration? Our main film was seven and number 23. These films had a similar narrative to ours so it was good to use them, in order to make ours successful.

Evaluation of Group 1 Thriller Opening
Group 1’s thriller opening entices the viewer right from the beginning; the establishing shot sets the scene allowing the viewer to understand what may be included within the sequence and should attract the viewer’s attention. The shot of Manan entering the scene could signify distress and agony, straight away there is a cross cut of the person captured and held hostage. The storyline is clearly shown and the viewer can easily understand that the person is in distress and something may happen that we are not aware of yet.
The titles to begin with run through the opening sequence, whilst the man is held hostage and then cross cutting back to the man being followed, the titles are inserted within the opening sequence and this works well because as we get a sense of the mise-en-scene we also have the titles embedded within the opening, this helps not to lose the flow of the sequence and keeps it consistent.
The soundtrack correlates with the opening sequence as it includes an eyrie, sordid feel. The soundtrack hints the essence of a thriller sound and was made by the group which also makes it unique and best suited for the opening sequence.
On the other hand there are aspects where certain items may be developed, some camera shots were hard to keep up with such as the shot where it is a POV shot, but it is much too blurry and to fast making the viewer feel uncomfortable. Another feature that they could improve would be the length of the titles, as I feel they are to short and as soon I begin to read the names the title changes.
Overall the opening sequence is well constructed and portrays a clear, straight forward storyline but there are certain aspects which could be improved such as some camera shots and the speed of which the titles are shown at the beginning of the opening sequence.
