Picking the Genre & The Story


Picking the Genre & The Story

GENRE

Still undecided about which genre to pick I have narrowed it down to 2 Possible Options. It could be the Action Genre or the Horror Genre. Both of these genres in my opinion would be the most fun to create a film intro for. Both usually have intense scenes at the beginning allowing the viewer to see what type of things would happen throughout the movie. 


    Action: With the previous post, I was talking about maybe creating a film intro similar to James Bond. Having an Opening Credit Scene is sort of like a trailer allowing the viewers to get a sneak peak at what would occur throughout the movie. With an action movie, it is important to show that this movie will include a lot of action shots and shots with fast pacing to help hook the audience. Having a well-made opening credit scene allows for a tone to be set throughout the movie, which is sort of like giving a taste to the viewers. This not only acts like a trailer to grab their attention but then it transitions to the actual film immediately after. The first Video would show what the opening credit scene would be and the second video would show what could be before or after the credit scene.






    Horror: A possible option for a horror intro for this project could be an opening scene where it is the present and something bad has happened. It could then lead to a transition where it starts to introduce all the credits for everyone who worked on this movie, at the same time while this is happening a beat starts to play sort of like an intense beat to show that something is going to happen. After this has happened it will transition into a flashback just before the main event happened or something around these lines to hook the viewer and see what is happening next. An example of a beat that is well known to show that something is going to happen is the JAWS sound effect when the Shark is about to attack. 




Overall whichever genre I decide to pick it will most likely include some type of music or beat to help show the viewer that this movie will be intense and would be worth watching. Having the right tone from the beginning can help let the viewer know if the movie will be fast-paced or if there will be parts where you will have to wait for something to happen and help bring suspense.
