student made film opening review

because i couldn't get YouTube working at home and the libraries blocked it, i did my hwk on one of the as media films we saw yesturday.

the flicker effect and transparency of the titles is done very well and works well with the genre. it's very similar to Se7en. some of the shot's aren't set up very well. for example, the shot of the fish tank with blood is at a strange angle and looks displeasing.

the quick cuts of the stairs are good too however gets to the point of almost being a danger for people with epilepsy. the shots of the test tubes with numbers on looks tacky because of the pase.

the sound is good and compliments the genre but is rather repetitive. the credits were good, no rude or crude names mentioned.

this is a good opening however because it's so short you can't afford to have a few parts looking awkward and because their are, it isn't fantastic because it could have been a lot better if a few shots were changed and steadied.
