Planning Blog: Location, Participants, Health, Schedule

 Participants: Anthony Villegas Vasquez, Rene Salmeron Reyes, Julian Pacheco

Location: Our group is quite fortunate when it comes to our location. We all have reliable transportation. We also live not too far from each other. Our houses are in good locations. We have chosen to film in Anthony’s area. We’re not sure of the exact location at the moment. Our film will take place at night though.

Schedule: 

By 02/20 we will be meeting consistently to properly plan out our filming 

By 02/27 we will have begun filming our first takes of the intro sequence 

By 03/05 we will have filmed everything and will soon begin editing 

After these dates there are a few things still to be done. We will be editing the video alongside preparing for the CCR.

Health: For the most part our film shouldn’t be too dangerous. We are filming at nighttime so we will have to make sure that when we are on the street to check both sides of the road for any cars coming by. We also have to include a scene where a guy gets kidnapped so we will make sure that nothing dangerous happens during the scene When walking along the sidewalk we also have to make sure to be safe.

Horror films are always exciting and suspenseful, with no dull moments. I personally find horror movies to be my favorite as they are the most scary

 What titles are displayed during the opening sequence? In the intro sequence of silent hill it displays the names of the actors alongside the characters that they play in the movie. Towards the end of the intro sequence it displays the name of the movie rather small on the screen in an eerie font. At the end, it credits the directors and producers of the film. - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence? The main images that are prioritized are the characters displayed throughout the intro sequence. The characters are first shown and then something covers their face like a tree branch for example. Then, it transitions to another character. There is more though, the intro sequence for silent hill is filled with creepy images and the entire thing is in black and white to create an initial thrill in the audience prior to the beginning of the movie. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? In the intro alone, silent hill manages to create a thrill in
