Please watch, annotate and write/record your analysis of 3 of the opening sequences including the two we looked at in class.
I encourage you to use different means of presenting your ideas. Can you make it like a DVD commentary? Can you use animation? Can you use Prezi instead of word? What about a recorded discussion between two of you? What about a filmed interview where you have decided the questions?
Manhattan
The Godfather
Once Upon a Time in the West
Veritgo
Fish Tank
City of God
Look for some other opening sequences and upload to your blog with your reasons for choosing them.
GENRE RESEARCH
For those you did not complete this, I want you to look closely into the Vampire sub-genre. Find and watch trailers and opening sequences of Vampire movies from Nosferatu - Dracula - The Hunger - Interview with a Vampire - Let the Right one in - What we do in the Shadows. And any others you may know of.
Consider the role that Vampire films play in mirroring what is happening is society at the time they were released. What similarities are there across the films, what significant differences are there? How is the vampire represented? Why?
You do not have to conclude this research but you must begin it.
