Title Research: Get Out
For the next title research blog, we researched the opening sequence of the movie "Get Out". In this movie, the first scene is a guy getting into a car and driving away. Then there's a clip of a bunch of trees going by like someone is in a car and driving on a long straight road with a bunch of trees next to it. The next clips are old random pictures that are black and white. The black and white shows that the pictures are old. The sequence moves on to a clip of a guy in an apartment drying himself off which shows he just got out of the shower. Then the clip jumpcuts to a girl at a bakery looking at a bunch of treats. It jumpcuts between the guy and the girl and then the girl ends up at his apartment. The guy is looking at pictures on his camera which infers he took the pictures we saw earlier in the sequence. There is a total of 35 titles shown in the 3-minute opening sequence. Each title was in a green-blue font and in the middle of the screen. Each scene shown makes us feel like it's a good morning for both of them. It feels like what we watched was a normal routine for them. The genre is reinforced in the first scene shown of the person getting into the car because it makes the audience curious about where they are going and why they are going there. In the beginning, it is a little hard to tell what the genre is but it feels like something is going to go down later in the movie. At first, the vibes give a normal type of day but later in the movie, they start to feel off making the audience more curious about why. Some conventions given in the opening sequence are the mystery conventions. The audience is asking themself why the car scene was there and how it will correlate to the rest of the movie.
