Title Design Research: Thriller

 We are researching the movie She Dies Tomorrow (2020) using the website www.artofthetitle.com

How Many Titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which Ones

There are 25 titles shown in this sequence. These include, the title, the writer and director, main actors names, producers, co-producer, photographers, editors, production designers, music artists, production manager, first and second assistant directors, art director, camera operators, design team roles, hair and makeup, sound editors, title designer, songs, and special thanks. 

What connotations do the images carry?

The images carry almost no connotation, against a black screen they are bold and in stark font. They show mystery by not revealing much.

How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset?

Genre is reinforced through symbolic and technical codes in one main way, through mystery. It reveals little to nothing about the movie, the only look the viewers get is through the font design. 

What conventions are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience 

The convention of mystery is used to appeal to the target audience. Mystery is most common in thrillers, contributing greatly to the suspense and appeal of the genre.

They were used to set the scene and to create tension by showing the character and the setting. There were also close ups to show the terrified looks on the actors faces. This created a thrill for the audience. Two shots were also common, usually between the protagonist and antagonist fighting.  Costumes: The "bad guys" wore distinct red suits to separate themselves from the other characters. The "good guys" wore normal day clothes such as jeans and t-shirts. Lighting: This movie had low lighting, which helped to create a scary mood. There was often flickering lights which created suspense, and sometimes there would be no light at all. Makeup: There was no extreme makeup in this movie. But like many thriller movies, ther

 My name is Siena Pancera, I am still 15 years old. I live in Fort Lauderdale, and still take AICE Media studies. I am a different student since our first project. When I first joined this class, I was nervous. I was unsure of if I could succeed. I also knew little to nothing about the subject. Now, I've learned so many new things about what this class can offer. I understand the concepts I am taught, and enjoy them. I've also grown in how I work on different activities in this class. After completing our first two tasks, the commercial and music video, I've learned how to be the best group mate I can. Like understanding how to help others in my group to the best of my abilities. I also know more about my individual responsibilities. Such as filming or editing. Even acting. I understand that I am definitely more comfortable behind the camera. These projects have all been exciting to create, and I learn about myself in the process. I am so excited to start the final task. I
