Ferris Bueller's Day Off Film Review/Analysis


Checklist For My Opening Sequence:

  • Don't reveal too much of the narrative.
  • Use a catchy soundtrack to engage my audience.
  • Correct institution information used.
  • Make the main character the focus of the narrative.
  • Film the video in landscape and not portrait as it will make it difficult to edit.
  • Make the actors speak clearly and slowly to make it easy to edit and understandable.
  • Stick to the 180 degree rule unless I am braking it to add effect and demonstrate confusion.
  • Use close ups.
  • Think about costume to represent a social group.
  • Make a clear plan/storyboard.
  • Make transitions seamless.
  • Use Film 4 as my institution company as they are usually low budget films and bring up encouraging actors. 
  • Try to include some animation in my sequence.
  • Produce a script for my actors.
  • Use pans to demonstrate motion.
  • Create some enigma codes that will make my audience watch on.
  • Produce a catchy soundtrack.
  • Include typography in my opening sequence.
  • Capitalise and embolden peoples names.
  • Think about the order of my credits.
  • Introduce some of the main characters of the film.
  • Use some short shots and jump shots to add pace to the sequence.
  • Add emphasis on important sounds in the shot.
  • Focus on my camera work.
  • Include some dialogue to reveal some of the narrative.
  • Put emphasis on key diegetic sounds.
