The film I chose was the first Fast and Furious. This movie is an action and also are car movie which is the kind of film we are looking to create. Within the first two minutes, the stories plot was still unknown. The opening credits including a car highjacking which is setting the introduction to what is going to be happening in the film. There was little dialogue and mostly just insert shots of the setting. Then the scene switched to an action shot of three cars chasing the semi truck. The opening credits left viewers interested in the reason for the highjacking and questioning what is going to happen. The over all budget for the film was 38 million dollars and the film made about 287.3 million dollars total. The film was nominated for many MTV and Teen Choice awards for best action movie, and have won 5 awards, one people the People's Choice award.

Project Selection My Decision

I feel that the film project would be the best for me. I feel that I will enjoy making a film more then doing a magazine. The main determining factor of choosing the film is that I feel that I will be able to easier to create the tone of my film. For my film I want to create the opening credits for would be an action movie. My group's idea is to do something on car racing and include interesting shots of the racing and of the cars. The members of my group Makayla and Erik. Erik job will be the to bring one of the cars for filming and one of the main characters who drives the car. My job in the film will mostly to be filming the all the shots. Makayla's job will be to also bring a car and be one of the main drivers.

Project Selection Film

For the film project I feel that it would be a better fit for me. This would be a overall better fit because, I am more interested in actually making a film. I have always enjoyed making videos and trying to create an overall unique film. I an interested in the pre film part, the writing if the script and the planning on where to film and who will be in it. I am interested in the costumes and the make-up in the pre filming. I also would enjoy the post film process with, editing because I have always enjoyed editing and adjusting everything to create the overall tone of my film. I struggle with filming which I recordnized in the filming of Ferris Buellers Day Off is how much time the process takes. When watching how the film was made I realized that some shots don't look the way they are expected to and might need to be reshot. Overall though I feel that I would enjoy the whole process of making a film.
