Research - Analysis Three (Sunset Blvd) (moved after making typing corrections)





  • First title to come up is over the image of a paving slab with the title of the film written on in (sunset blvd), The title to come up however is very unconventional reading "announcing, the most unusual motion picture in many years". This entices the viewer to stay and watch the film straight away, as you want to know just why its so unusual. Note, the camera tilts down and views the slab from a high angle shot. 
  • Right from the fade into the picture there is a loud orchestral schoor of quite random music which helps engage the audience. 
  • The camera then zooms out and tracks the ground, at the same time all the title credits appear. 
  • This goes on for quite sometime due to the amount of people in the production.
  • After this a voice over begins giving the plot of the film of a man found dead in a swimming pool (common theme).
  • During the tracking of the police cars there are many cuts between shots and fast pans to emphasis the speed of the reaction of the police to the murder.
