Title Design Research: Spider-Man Into The Spiderverse

1. How many titles are displayed during the opening scene of the film? Which ones? 


First the opening mentions who the movie is directed by. Then it lists the producers of the movie. Then it lists who the screenplay and story are made by. Then it says based on the Marvel comics. Lastly the name of the movie is shown: Spider-Man Into The Spider-Verse. 


2. What connotations do the images carry? 


The Spider-Men in the intro are seen spray painting a wall with their symbols. This is ironic because the Spider-Men are supposed to be saving the day but they are spay painting public property which is illegal. Another image is the Spider-Men running and swinging around. The connotation of this image contributes to the action genre because its fast paced. The sound track also contributes because its fast song which provides hype and suspense. 


3. How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset? 


The genre is reinforced through the symbolic and technical codes from the outset because the genre is action the opening is fast paced starting off with Miles Morales (Spider-Man) running straight towards the camera. The opening then contains other people with the same powers as Miles Morales swinging around. A tracking shot is used to follow them. Then Spider-Man and the others land on the ground and the music finished right as they do. This feature adds hype and suspense to what will happen in the movie. 


4. What conventions are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience? 


First a tracking shot is used following all the Spider-Man as they are swinging through what is another dimension (The Spider-Verse).Then a panning shot is used from the side following all of the Spider-Men until they land. When the main Spider-Man (Miles Morales) lands there is a medium shot of him spray painting a wall with his spider symbol. The there is a panning shot of all the Spider-Men in a bobbing machine with the hammer about to hit them but they keep dodging it. Then the last scene of the opening there is another tracking shot following the Spider-Men as they fly into the air side by side.

Production blog: The pool scene

Image
Today's the day of the major pool scene. Me and my friends got together at school and went to my car. We stopped by dominoes to pick up some pizza because we were absolutely starving. Afterwards, we went by Jibril's place to pick up his cop costume. Honestly its just a blue trench coat and a police badge we got from the dollar store, but we gotta stay economic. We went to my place and absolutely devoured the pizza. Oh and i forgot to mention, my Amazon package containing fake blood and fake cyanide pills came. We could use the cyanide for the scene we were going to film. Now, it was time to record. We filmed the scene of me entering the house for the first time with the murder scene being crystal clear. We then recorded the scene of me tackling officer Lussac into the pool and dragging him out. This was one of the most fun scenes i've filmed in my life. The fake cyanide looked really cool when Lussac broke it into his mouth. It looked like he was having a real seizure. We e...
