Hello, today I will be talking about the design and title aspect of the movie: “glass”. I got this information from the website: artofthetitle.
-How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film: There are 22 titles displayed during the opening sequence to the film including the music director, producer, and editor.
-What images are prioritized in the opening sequence: The images prioritized in the opening sequence showed a scene of 2 teenagers committing wrongful acts against a man until they were caught by an older man. These images set the scene to introduce one of the main characters: the older man, and reveal his role in the film.
-What connotations do the images carry: The images connotate shock, anger, fear, and suspense. Once the teenagers are caught by older they run and don’t expect to be found, yet the audience knows that the older man has some sort of power. This makes the audience want to continue the movie in order to learn more.
-How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset: As noted in my genre research, thrillers frequently use tracking/dolly shots to exaggerate and create suspense throughout films. Genre is reinforced through the frequent tracking shots in the opening scene. It is used to follow the characters and lead the audience to whatever occurs next.
-How does the film establish an enigma from the outset: The film establishes an enigma through the anticipating music and jump cuts within the opening sequence.
-What strategies are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience: I believe that pathos is used again to appeal to the audience of young adults. Seeing peers around their age throwing around ill-treatment and getting punished for it persuaded them to learn more about the punisher or savior.
