Risk Assessment For Gossip!

The risk assessment is important because it tells me and Zoe what problems we might face and how we can overcome all of them. Each setting has there own risk but the majority of them are not likely to cause a lot of harm.

Gossip! Logo Drafts

 

This font connotes that the film is about teenage girls which links to the given genre ‘Teen Angst’ and the target audience of teenagers. The colour pink is mainly associated with girls so we thought it was suitable even though it’s a stereotype. Also, the lipstick stain implies sassiness which is a characteristic of the actresses in the sequence and what the film contains.  

 

 
This font works well for the film as it conveys the genre successfully. I think it conveys the genre as we have decided to use a bubble-gum pink colour  which is stereotypically associated with girls. The lipstick connotes that the girls are in their teenage years and the two kisses suggest that they might be quite intimidating and popular. We have used this font as it looks like it has been written in lipstick.

 

The layers of font are different shades of pink and purple which gives this logo a 3D effect so it is eye catching to the target audience. We wanted to include the lipstick as it conveys our genre successfully, we have turned it into an exclamation mark point which changes the tone of the film slightly. The lipstick kisses suggests that the film is related to drama with boys and between girls. Pink and purple colours in the title match the lipstick marks which develops the genre aesthetic.

 

Planning Schedule/Shot List For Gossip!

Film Jenna and Bryony walking down a street but separately to make a split screen of them both, then Bryony goes into someone's house and Jenna stops walking. One shoot of Jenna walking and stopping, two shoots of Bryony walking then sat in someone's house.

As Jenna rings Bryony (film Jenna and Bryony talking separately so the audience can see their locations) close up of both of them on the phone.
Then zoom out slightly when Jenna hangs up and flick to Bryony (zoomed out) in a house sitting next to some guy.

Film Jenna again getting a call from Ronnie, show Ronnie on other end of the phone when she talks but ending line from Ronnie shows Jenna looking frustrated and being silent.

Planning For Teen Angst Title Sequence Gossip!

 

              

Preliminary Task

To complete this task our group decided that one person would film and two would act to show a short conversation with simple walking, sitting and a match on action shot of me opening the door. Firstly, we did a tracking shot of me walking to the door where I stopped in front of the door. Then a different take captured the match on action shot was achieved simply by filming my hand going to the door handle and opening the door, following this shot was a scene of me walking into the room so Joe (camera man/director) was in the room that I was entering so it wasn't from my point of view. This shot ended with me sat in a chair across the table from Zoe.

Then the next shoot included shot reverse shot filming of me and Zoe having a short conversation. To do this shoot Joe had to capture the conversation from behind Zoe then incorporated the 180 degree rule and took a shoot from behind me (over our shoulders) where we had to repeat the conversation. All of this was edited to make everything join together smoothly and it fades to black at the end to clearly end the overall sequence. The hardest decision we had to make was what dialogue we used as we were overthinking it too much but in the end we kept it simple and straight forward.

Character Analysis Of High School Musical

Sharpay Evans is a powerful character in High School Musical, known for being the popular girl who is very high maintenance and demanding. If she doesn't get things done her way then the whole school will know about it because she has a loud and confident personality. Her hair looks so blonde that it could be fake and she always wears bright clothes so she is very noticeable to everyone. Sharpay loves to be the centre of attention and she always has to look better than everyone so she'll wear sequins and noticeable accessories.


Gabriella Montez is a timid character in High School Musical and isn't really well known because she doesn't like to flaunt her talents as she is shy. She follows the crowd and hides behind her books a lot so doesn't like to be noticed by a lot of people as she is a nervous character. But, Gabriella is always up for helping others and is very kind to anyone she talks to around the school no matter what social group they're in.

Title Sequnce Of High School Musical

Smooth electric guitar music palying quietly as we are shwon all the settings within the title sequence.

2 seconds- 'Disney Channel Original Movie fades in over a pan of a school building showing a clock and some windows. The font is white and is a smart font style.

9 secinds- 'High School Musical 2' fades in, in front of East High School sign.

16 seconds- There is a cross cutting transition and we see the school cafeteria, 'starring Zac Effron' comes up in capitals, fades in on the bottom of the screen.

22 seconds- 'Vanessa Hudgens' comes up as the screen is panning around the cafeteria hall, the name comes up in the same style as before.

25 seconds- 'Ashley Tisdale' comes up in the same style again, there is a fade into a basketball court, cross cut is subtle.

30 seconds- 'Lucas Grabeel' appears and a basketball is shown in the shot whilst the camera pans.

37 seconds- Cross cut fade into another darker setting of a stage with a few lights. 'Corbin Bleu' is shown in the process of the fade.

38 seconds- 'Monique Coleman' appears, we see the same setting, camera is still panning.

42 seconds- 'Mark L. Taylor' fades in as we see the stage being faded out, on the stage is a moon, stars and a stool.

45 seconds- 'Bart Johnson' appears as the camera pans over walls and we are then lead into a classroom where the sequence ends and the film begins with the students looking at the clock. The title continue as we see the name 'Robert Curtis Brown' at 49 seconds and we see the teacher talking to the class.

Title Sequence Of Bad Teacher

The beginning of the sequence shows the audience the main character walking through a school corridor. The setting is obvious because of the lockers next to the woman. She is shown very made up and the lighting on her is very bright which implies that she cares about her appearance a lot.


The second image is showing us the school location but it is a simple still shot of it which doesn't give us much detail on the school. This could mean that where they are isn't very important to the narrative.

.. or it means that the woman takes all of the viewers attention by her look and maybe her personality.

The photo of 'Ari' looks quite seductive.
The backdrop is plain which drawers your attention to the characters even more and because of the style of writing and font I think the target audience is older teenagers. Also, I think this because of the look of this woman 'Ari'.

When showing all the characters it says their occupation underneath their names which is a good way to introduce them without having seen them do their jobs. Each characters pose tells us what they are like, for example, 'Sara' looks very confused and unaware which doesn't link to her scientific appearance.

The sequence ends by telling the audience that the blonde woman is 'Bad' by clearly displaying it with bold back writing and a black arrow directed to her.

I think the aesthetics look good as the contrast between the black and yellow makes the viewer concentrate. As a whole the title sequence doesn't tell us much about the plot but I can guess that it has a comedic value.

Title Sequence Of Radio Rebel

The title sequence for Radio Rebel begins by showing the viewer that it is a Disney film. Automatically this lets people know that it is suitable for children and teenagers. By informing the viewers who the film is by it immediately will help them decide whether they want to watch the film.

It goes straight into the film as the main character is talking to you within 8 seconds of the opening starting. This intrigues viewers as it seems like the voice over is talking directly to them.

Then it shows up a close up of the voice overs eyes which implies that she is the main character and is quite mysterious.

17 seconds in we see the title 'Radio Rebel' in the centre of the screen typed in big red letters that are slanted slightly. A question mark can be seen in the D and R of rebel.

As the voice over continues talking about being original and grades from school, we see credits in red letter all in capitals. We can assume these are characters names unless it says otherwise. Throughout the credits being shown the audience are almost welcomed to the scene of the school. This setting suits the target audience well and stereotypically because all children go to school.

At 50 seconds the screen grows to fit the whole viewing screen and we see all types of different students doing various things.

The camera is panning round to the main characters and in the process the audience will feel involved in the film because the way it is shot makes it look like they are in the scene filming people around them.

After all of the panning the audience see two characters having a conversation so straight away we are taken into the film and the story line starts.
