 I also spoke this week about how my audience will be affected by the production firm and about the financing. My viewers will be influenced by the production industry and some production firms have bad films and some have decent films so that just depends on which production company you chose, so most people in the audience know that it will be a good film by the production company.

Stage 2: Scriptwriting

This week, the main for the most part researches basically are consisting of scriptwriting in a subtle way. The purpose is to specifically compose a summary of the purpose of the "Life" opening sequence. Life mostly is investigating the conviction of five black teenagers after the murder of a dearest companion by police brutality. While the focus of this project will include some non-fictional elements of the daily life of black teenagers, it will also mostly include some fictional concepts. Looking at movie scripts in the crime genre, I can generally say what I found out they basically are usually narrated with an actual dark setting in a subtle way. I would like my movie to for all intents and purposes incorporate some dark-themed narratives as well as drama.  What is your "brand" or "mission statement" for your film? What are you striving towards? What are you trying to achieve with your story? Your brand will be important for choosing a production comp
  The opening credits of a film have an immense influence on sound, character, storyline, and even style. In similarities to my genre, other movies construct meaning through the use of cinematic shot transitions and editing to create a mysterious opening sequence. The genre of crime has nighttime settings, theft, homicide, guns, and security powers, and a set location for drama depicts believable characters in a conflict between themselves and others. Drama and crime movie titles typically take about 2 minutes or less. They also have large fonts, dark backgrounds, and a vivid view of a crime world of drama.     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdMtnvMJcDA  
This project would be a presentation of a character interviewed revealing a traumatic past he had with a group of friends. While a participatory documentary would be the key component of the plot, the audience will be presented with various sets of traditional styles as the story progresses. In particular, the inclusion of crime, drama, mystery, thriller, and even sci-fi will take place. These concepts came about when I did my research on themes, setting, tone, characters, plotline, and native drama frameworks for conventions that are slow-motion, narrative, a song on action, and murder, innocent victim, murder weapon, and isolated setting for crime. To assist me with my project, I have also researched some examples of my genre's opening sequence.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6N9jMX00aus
Within the second week of the final project, we were assigned to research the genre that compliments our project. This project will be based on a documentary, so the researches applied to that specific genre. In my researches, I found out there are six (6) different modes of the documentary genre: poetic, expository, observational, participatory, reflexive, and performative. They determine the applied concepts and the themes of the various styles. Poetic mode films emphasized atmosphere, sound, and effects. They compose of temporal patterns and spatial juxtapositions, poetically reassembling the universe. There is usually a lack of continuity editing, opting for evidentiary editing instead, which is less concerned about the relationship between time and space. Expository style is to discuss concerns in the historical world explicitly. The main purposes of these documentaries are to educate or reassure the viewer by making a specific statement. They put a strong priority on rhetoric,

Film Opening

The act of not revealing all the elements of the characters /subjects in a film while still giving the audience some information are known as the opening credits. They are the attention grabber of the film. Giving just enough information allowing the audience a moment to tap into the sequence. In the opening credits of a documentary there would most likely be quotes included or clips of the interviewees or subjects either speaking or in action. For example the opening credits of “The Social Dilemma” were of the interviewees setting themselves in preparation to the actual interview. The producers also included clips of the interviewees, the news and even a family.  https://youtu.be/VB8cl580KSk Opening credits is a list at the beginning of a movie of individuals or actors seen one after the other. As a title sequence is a single scene that takes place before the actual movie begins, and then the title of the movie reveals.
