Title Research: “Get Out”

The movie “Get Out” was title researched on www.artofthetitle.com because it has the same genre as my group and I’s genre, Horror. This movie contains seventeen titles with multiple people in each category. These titles included presenters, production, in association, the film type, the actual title, actors, castings, music, music supervision, costume designer, edited by, production designer, director of photography, co-producers, executive producers, producers, written and directed by. The first couple seconds of this opening is showing a white car on the street driving away. Instantly it switches to a tracking shot of a car driving past the woods really fast. Following that scene, the main characters appeared fulfilling their daily tasks. There were pictures shown that one of the characters took displayed in his house however it's believed to be there for aesthetic purposes. It is believed that the opening should have a connection to what the actual movie is about but there is none. The opening just included a change of scenes from a dark road, to the wood, then one of the characters house. Before the movie starts, we know its a horror film but the fact that the intro isn't scary confuses the viewers. There is nothing about fear or terror seen so if anything the viewers should be open into seeing what will happen when the movie actually starts. Around the time this movie was released, the director was getting a buzz which is why the movie did so well its opening week, not because of the opening. Viewers knew it was a horror film, they just wanted to know what direction it would go in which is what drew so many people in. The film started at a high angle with a white car driving off, there was then an eye level tracking shot just showing the woods in the background with the actors name. The shots with the characters appearing varied due to what they were doing, there were a few medium shots, medium close up, point of view and over the shoulder shots. The transitions were very quick and there was no fade into any new background or image. The editing techniques were pretty basic as well, there was no irregular or unusual technique used.
