Moodboards

Hello! For our project, we have designed some moodboards to give us inspiration and insight into the aesthetic of our film: The first mood board is representative of what elements we want to include in our film, notably childhood wonder, exploration and, most importantly, imagination. They also depict the type of mise-en-scene we want to present in our film opening. For example, we plan to use everyday clothing as well as colourful costumes to show the visual contrast between 'real' and 'imagination' as well as a means to represent our characters in a childish but endearing way. As for setting, we hope to use a playground, possibly with a woods or forest-like area behind it to add to the general feeling of outside play and adventure, where the characters can use the play equipment as props to act out the stories in their imagination. We also wanted to include aspects of family by having the main characters being children of a young, pre-teen age. The mood bo...

Ramona and Beezus - Textual Analysis (1)

Textual Analysis of a Film Opening: Ramona and Beezus ' Ramona and Beezus ' tells the story of Ramona Quimby and her various unsuccessful plans to keep her life and family together, such as trying to help her Dad, Robert, earn money after he loses his job and trying to wash her neighbour's car. The film utilises the theme of childish wonder and imagination to take moments outside of the reality of the film and show the audience what Ramona, as a 9-year old, is seeing, creating various scenes that use animation and creative licence in an endearing, memorable manner. 1) Conventions The first part of the sequence we see follows convention as it presents the film company logos of the various companies involved in production, in this case they're '20th Century Fox' and 'Walden Media'. The opening then proceeds into show ing the film title 'Ramona and Beezus'. The audience can then assume that 'Ramona and Beezus' are characters in the ...

Bridge to Terabithia - Textual Analysis (2)

Textual Analysis of a Film Opening: Bridge To Terabithia Bridge to Terabithia tells the story of Jesse Aarons (Josh Hutcherson) and Leslie Burke (Anna-Sophia Robb) and their vivid imaginations, creativity and their growing friendship as they face evils in their everyday lives, such as facing a bully or Jesse's strained relationship with his Dad. The film uses special effects and drawn animation to create a whimsical world that draws audiences in and keeps them invested. 1) Conventions The opening of 'Bridge to Terabithia', firstly, adheres to general film conventions by including the logo animations for two production companies involved with the development at the beginning of the opening, these being Walt Disney Pictures and Walden Media. The clip starts with an opening establishing shot of what we presume is our main character's house, outside of which is a truck and a small green house. From this visual information, and the size and architectural st...
