Clarity

My Findings

What I have found from my research is that the locations that the films are shot in are a real variety of places from studios to hotels but I think that the main aim of deciding to use any kind of location it is important that the image translates to screen in a very natural way. It is meant to be as realistic as possible. Again this is because of the idea that a lot of these films are biographical but also because these types of film rely on the quality of the acting almost more than anything else.

I have also really struggled with whom or what institutions make these kinds of crime films. I just cannot seem to find out who makes them. They are all really different from each other and they are all done by different people. It does seem though that the one common feature is that all of the films that I have analysed seem to have been really expensive films to make and that they often need a star studded cast to make them work.

 The opening sequences are all about the way that the story is set up. What I have learnt from this is that my opening sequence really has to show what the story is about which is why I have decided to use a flashback in my film because it shows that the story is all about the end point it gives the film direction and tells the audience where the film is going to go what makes the story interesting is how they get there. The opening sequence also has to set up the pace of the film to show whether it is going to be fast or slow and whether the film is all about the sequence of motion and what is going to happen in that moment or is it about the little moments in the film all the detail and is it about getting the audience to question things or just to accept them as they are.
