• How will you test that whether the product is successful? How will you check that it accomplishes the intended effect: We could produce a questionnaire about the ideas we have for our film and see the feedback we get, also we could produce a film trailer to see how much recognition the film gains.
• What generic codes and conventions will be operating in your text: We plan to use as many codes and conventions we can in our title sequence. We will show the details of all the important cast and crew, being presented in order of importance, the films title, intro to character type, info regarding mood and tone, info on genre, questions that the viewer find intriguing, patterns and type of editing that will be echoed in the remainder of the film andMise-en-Scene and cinematoraphy that will be echoed or elaborated upon later in the film.
• Identify any resource constrains that might affect your production and your hopes for your product: I think the main thing we have to keep under control is the amount of time we use for our title sequence, this is because there is so much to do in a little time. To gain the equipment that we need shouldnt be a problem because we can get it all from school and all we need to film our title sequence is a video camera and tripod. I also dont think money will be an issue as we dont have to pay any money to use the areas we want to and some of the filming will take place in school.
