Student film opening marking


In our lesson, we watched a several previous film openings and were told to look at the mark scheme to ensure we knew what we should look out for. Here are several film openings I reviewed.

A schools nightmare
  • Smooth pan throughout the entire film.
  • Music helped with tension and linked with the editing.
  • There is enigma code.
  • Lighting was relevant to the theme portrayed.
  • Props help build up the clues shown and questions asked.
  • Doesn't give much away to the audience.
Luna
  • Music corresponds with the theme of the film opening.
  • Variety of shots used.
  • Camera shakes during the pans.
  • Bad lighting on the beach, couldn't see clearly what was happening.
  • There is no background noise which takes the attention away from the main focus. 
  • The main title is after the film. 
Poscig
  • Title at the start.
  • It hasn't got creative text or font which links with the theme. 
  • Transition between two shots which links all events together.
  • Different shot from  the car which shows variety.
  • Music helps with tension.


Michael
  • Camera angles and pans were used throughout the whole film. 
  • Music corresponds with the theme of the opening.
  • Shots were relevant to the story.
  • It doesn't give clues or make you ask questions. There are no enigma codes.
  • In the beginning you can hear the background noise over the music which makes it seems cheap.
