Top 3 favorite film opening scenes

 In a class discussion we talked about our top 5 favorite films. I picked Granddaddy day care, Scary movie, The trap, A haunted house 2, and Night school. All these movies are found on Netflix. So today I’ll talk about the opening scene on my top three favorite films. 

Granddaddy day care

Granddaddy day care is a comedy movie found on Netflix. It’s about a guy who wants to be a novelist but also has problems with money. His father in law needs a place to stay and him and his wife decide to let him stay as long as he needs. Needing to pay bills and find a quick way to make money he decides to start something like a day care for seniors at his house to make money off of that. Granddaddy day care opening scene showed the book that the man was thinking about and how he was having trouble trying to write it. This helped me see that him trying his best to make a perfect book meant that writing the book was important for his future and the movie will show later on why it was important to him.



Scary movie  

Scary movie is a horror comedy film also can be found on Netflix (might not be there still because Netflix has taken down some of the movies). Scary movie is a parody of movies such as scream. It’s just a movie that makes fun of how people get there self out of scary information. For example on most movies it’s would be a dumb blonde white girl getting themselves into trouble. They use this stereotype in the movie just to make people laugh and to mock the movie scream. The opening scene of scary movie was the parody of scream where the dumb blonde white girl picked up the phone and talked to ghost face on the phone. This showed me that the genre was horror comedy because scream is a horror comedy movie and it gave some funny parts while she was on the phone. Also ghost-face talking to her the phone made it seem that he was going to be in the movie a lot since it’s a parody based of scream and other movies.



The trap 

The trap is a comedy movie which like all the other movies can be found on Netflix. It’s about how a man comes back to his family restaurant and helps them since they’re struggling. His mom is in the hospital and they need money for her to do surgery, so him and his brother are selling things to help make enough money to help her. While watching the opening scene it showed how the mans life was going good and he really likes being a chef and was really good at it. Watching it made me think that him being good at cooking was very important in the movie because most of the starting was just about that. Also him being in a place that looks like a 5 star restaurant makes it seem that his cooking is that good and he is good at what he does.

Storyboarding

Today ill be explaining what storyboarding is and why it is important in a film. This is going to be short because we aren't going to be very long because storyboarding is very simple and much easier since your not doing too much.   What is storyboarding?  Storyboarding is a graphic organizer that consists of illustration or graphic images in a certain sequence for a pre-visual motion picture animation of your film. Typically, this means that you have a visual of what each shot is going to be doing. The storyboard description gives further on what the picture is trying to show. For example, if your going to draw something that supposed to show a whip pan, you should make the description: "Camera goes into a whip pan....".

Production, Distribution, exhibition

 Today in class we learned Production, Distribution, Exhibition. This should help us know what big production companies do to get their movies out there. Example of big movie companies: Walt Disney, Universal, and 20th century fox, etc.  Production    Production is how you make the film. You have to have an idea, have to write a script, control your budget. Most importantly you have to know your cast. Personally, I believe your cast has to match with each character. When the cast matches each character, they wouldn't have to think too much about acting. You also have to know your budget. The budget will show how much you can spend on everything in total that way you don't go overboard with money. With budgeting comes an investor. An investor is the person who is providing money for filming. You have to make sure that your film is fundable so that your not wasting money. You also need you producer.
