Title Design Websites

  I am now researching titles to understand title designs and why they are important. I found this website named artofthetitle.com to see examples of title/opening scenes. It shows the names of the different designers and studios that come up with the titles. I have viewed many of the different titles. Every title is unique. This website allows me to watch either just the titles of films or the summary. I've noticed a lot of editing, for example animation and freeze frames, as well as slow-mos/montages. Some films just show the names while others input the names as the storyline begins. I appreciate the simplicity of this website and how it shows the date in which the movie or show was made. This website is nicely organized and has many film title scenes I can take inspiration from. The next website I found, from my friend, is called watchthetitles.com. This website is a little bit more complex. It also shows the designers and studios and lets me see title sequences from different types of films/shows. It has a feature to search for something specific as well.  I like this website because it gives a description of the film to give some background information. It even shows the typography of the titles which I find neat. This website shows title sequences that student have made as well. I have noticed a trend of creativity in every title scene. Every film has some aspect that hooks the viewer to watch more. I believe the opening scene is the most important scene because it makes the watcher either really interested or really bored.

Last Minute Filming

Image
 Today I filmed some extra stuff for the film and some things I just forgot to film. I forgot to film the part where Avery's mother, father, and brother run to the scream that they heard. So, I filmed that. Also, I forgot to film the bit where Avery's mom calls 911. So I filmed that with a close up of her calling. Previously when I was editing I noticed my film was running short. To fix this, I filmed a part where Avery's dad shakes hands with the detective. I think I will end the film with that clip. Another way to fix this is I filmed a part where Avery walks and sits down at her desk and starts writing. Hopefully this will make my film the right size. The filming process was fairly easy. I had to make sure the set was the same. To do this I cleaned the room we filmed in. It was, however, a struggle to get my actors together. Whenever Sebastian wasn't busy Izzy was. And vice versa. I had to create a group chat so they they could situate when they were both not busy. T...

Thriller for the Win

Image
 My decision for my film is to be thriller based. Even though it's not my favorite type of movie to watch, I think it would be fun to film. My pitch is also a type to be thriller because it is a murder mystery. I didn't want it to be a comedy because I don't think I could come up with a funny script. It also wouldn't be good as a romance because someone got murdered, not engaged. I am excited to make my thriller movie. I don't think I will take the route where its super scary though. I think I am just going to make is ominous and keep the audience on their toes. I already know I am going to incorporate screaming. I am also thinking of making the lighting dark when the detective is interrogating the suspects. I also have the perfect setting for it to take place, my boyfriends house. His house is very open and has many rooms for the suspects to have alibis. Thriller involves many different shots and types of editing so I think it will be easy to complete the mandatory...

Introductory Blog

 Hi, my name is Ariel Pickholtz. I am 16 years old, and I am a junior at Fort Lauderdale High School. I love to go thrifting, hanging out at the beach, and spending time with my friends and family in my freetime. I also love doing photography and videography. I have a cat that lays next to me everytime I do homework on my bed. I also enjoy playing tennis and watching football games. One film I can really appreciate is Avatar because it is so ahead of its time and it's very interesting. I also love the movie Rio for their amazing soundtrack. I decided to take AICE media studies because I like films and I wanted to see everything that goes into them. I wanted to learn why directors make certain choices when putting together the film and what certain cuts and angles are supposed to make the viewer feel.  I also heard that the teachers were very good at teaching the subject. I am excited to learn everything about the filming process as well as make my own films. I'm excited to wor...
