Media Research: Opening Titles of a Specific Genre
Love actually: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3GWzLpkVdg&feature=related
Bridget Jones's Diary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0D0zfB1l1x0
In media yesterday we were looking at various opening of films, that relate to the genre we wish to use for our coursework piece. My Group decided to chose Romantic-Comedy as the genre for our piece, due to the practicality. The Film Openings I looked at were:
The Proposal
10 Things I hate about you
Bridget Jones's Diary
4 weddings and a funeral
Love Actually
I found that they were all very similar, each started of with a soft soft of song, which gives the audiences the expectation of romance,except for 10 things I hate about you which had a contrast with 'One Week by barenaked ladies' and 'Bad reputation by Joan Jett' to show the divide between students., however the Mise en scène of how the actor portray the character in a comical way for example Bridget Jones's Diary.
Through the Mise en scène, the audience is given the expectation of a comedy, while the music gives an expectation of love, except for 10 things I hate about you.
