Title Research: Parasite

The opening sequence for this movie was found on artofthetitle.com. In the opening sequence of the film Parasite, there are many titles shown. About 12 titles are displayed in total. Each of the titles display the name of the actors, the production company and everyone that participated in the production of the movie. The images that are prioritized are the dirty windows and the socks that are hanging. In the sequence, the camera tilts down, onto one of the main character's as he is attempting to connect to the Wi-Fi, somewhat desperately or hurriedly. This is one of the only instances of connotations in the sequence. The outset is a little hard to understand, as the audience. Moreover, you question why we the audience are seeing a dirty window and walls, along with socks hanging, or why the main character is desperately attempting to connect to the Wi-Fi. I don't believe any extraordinary techniques were used to hook the audience through the opening sequence. Technology was effectively used throughout the sequence, through the usage of diverse camera angles editing techniques, and transitions. An example was a tilt shot used when the camera began to slide down towards the main character.

Production Blog: First Bits of Progress

Image
 Originally, the plan was to start filming after spring break. However, I found out through Corey that he will be leaving for his Europe trip on Saturday. There is no school on Friday, meaning we could get some filming done that day. There is a scene where just Corey is filmed driving the car to go pick up Chelsey and Cailey. This is the scene I intend on filming Corey this Friday. The plan is, I will slide to his neighborhood early in the morning, while my dad is doing a quick construction job. During that period of time, I will film Corey leaving his house driving his mother's SUV. For about a minute I will film Corey just driving. Then I will film another scene of him driving and listening to some music. Corey is just going to drive around his neighborhood, if necessary, once or twice, onto a commercial street. Cailey and Chelsey will not be available to film that day, so their parts will be filmed after spring break. The scene of Corey driving will be filmed from a variety of a...

Production Blog: Filming Progress

Image
      As stated in the previous blog, I was able to get some filming progress done with Corey on Friday, the first day of our spring break. Due to Cailey and Chelsey not being present, I only filmed his part. Which consisted of him driving his car, on the way to pick up Cailey and Chelsey. It was done relatively early in the morning, which is shown as the sun appears to be rising in most of the footage. Even though I am content that a little bit of progress was done. It is my goal to start filming this week, as I am heavily opposed to procrastination. Much discussion was done today with Corey, Chelsey, and Cailey. It seems that all 3 of them, as well as myself, will be available on Saturday to film. A specific time has not been established, but it seems that the filming will be done in the early morning to early afternoon. Right before lunch time, most of the filming for that day should be done. Because I am not trying to be accountable for feeding 3 souls, as that will s...

Production Blog: Not Able to Film

Image
     After the first filming session where I filmed Corey, I decided that I would need another day or two to film Corey again. This time however, Chelsey would be a part of the filming process. As she was not able to be present the last time I filmed. I discussed with Corey and Chelsey what days work for them, a few days ago. Chelsey stated that she would be available and Wednesday and Thursday. Corey stated that from Monday through Thursday he would be available. We had previously planned to film again today, Wednesday, December 14th. However, I just finished telling them that Wednesday would not work for me. Due to the fact that I have after-school tutoring for chemistry. I have a chemistry test tomorrow, that I am partially prepared for, and I'm trying to be completely prepared. On a brighter note, I am already planning to film again tomorrow, after school, along with Chelsey and Corey. I will start filming again tomorrow, at around 4:00-4:30 p.m., ...
