Notes for spider man 2 opening Bradley Mills

Spider man 2 opening titles

Comic strip fast paced – along with fast paced music creating a feeling of triumph, justice and action suitable to the subject of the film which also the origins are from the marvel comic books.

The generic distributor sequence in this case Columbia appears before the main titles appear on screen, the distribution company name also appears in the main title sequence shortly after.

The opening titles uses a montage of images showing what has happened previously as the movie is a sequel this helps to establish a story line and reminds the audience of what has already happened and provides the members of the audience who haven't seen the previous film enough information to watch the sequel.

The title sequence Uses layering of effects and images creating a visually pleasing sequence
The images are not static there are zooms and tilts used as well as effects appearing over the image to create an effect of action.

There is a primary color theme of red which relates to the color scheme of the super hero's costume itself with secondary colors of blues and whites used also.

Spiderman appears first followed by the 2, this adds to the brand of the spider man franchise by using the same text from the first movie and then adding the number two afterwards to show a progression in the franchise.

Generically the text appears Central in the screen which draws the audiences attention to the name of the movie.

There are effects used with the word marvel Letters are enlarged scrolling across the screen but does not always reveal entire word this is a good technique used to create an artistic title which goes along with the idea of art and magazines linked with the character of spider-man

A magnifying effect is used between the gaps of the spiders web, where text appears magnified when crossing a line in the spiders web, this is also used for artistic effect and ties along with the theme of the spider man costume.

The idea of power is explored in the images for the title sequence displaying the spider man character the majority of the images as low angle shots to suggest power where as the damsel in distress character is shown in high angle shots to suggest venerability.

  1. This needs to be finished straight away - especially as it's already late for the deadline. You are in danger of losing marks for planning if work is not completed by deadlines.

  2. Why have you still not finished this? It's also full of typos/spelling errors, which are very obvious. This is very substantially below the standard required to pass, and is also very overdue.

  3. You all need to post much more regularly to the blog. You were advised that you needed to each post once a day, and you are a long way from this! From now, in the last stages, you need to record decisions made at the end of editing, and you should use screen grabs to illustrate. The blog is disappointing as it stands, and you have risked dragging your overall grade down.

  4. Where is your draft evaluation?? You are unlikely now to get as much, if any advice on how to improve this as you've missed the deadline.
