For my porject I am think using media theory. One that I had in mind was Framing. Framing helps examine the presentation of visuals and narrative work together to shape the audience interaction with the story. I choose framing as my theory because I want to explore how the presentation of visual and narrative elements shapes the audience view on the film. My opening scene is inspired by Fast and the Furious, By applying Framing Theory, I can use visual and narrative techniques to help create my main characters. I can use close up of the engine to starting to highlight the power of the car. I can shot cars and characters from low angels to make them appear dominant and powerful. I can so include neon lights to create high engird and vibe. Movement that I can also use are tracking shot to follow the cars during the street race with smooth tracking shots to create a sense of speed and fluidity. By applying framing theory, I can create a film opening that not only looks visually goof but also effectively connects the story, theme, and emotions to the audience. Framing allows me to guide the audiences to better understand the film.
