Title Research: All the bright places

All the bright places is a 2020 teen romance film. This film is unique because of it's incorporation with mental health and how it effects relationships.

  What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? 

The entertainment companies logo is the first to go up. Then the name of the movie. This opening is not like the others I have seen since it doesn't show any names of actors or the production team.

What images are prioritized in the opening sequences? 

 A clip of a low camera angle of a person running and continues at different angles of the man. Followed by a pov shot of him looking at a girl standing on a bridge looking down. He then runs up to her, they seem to speak more with their eyes than anything being that there is really just cutaway scenes of them looking at each other and then doing actions based off of that. 

What connotations do these images carry? 

It tells the audience that the girl has mental health issues and is contemplating suicide and the man has some sympathy towards her although he didn't realize who she was at first. After the realization he becomes more interested in helping her. It also shows how she cares about others being that she tells him to stop when she feels like he will hurt himself.

How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? 

This film is unlike others and starts the movie with more of a sympathy feeling. The opening makes the audience realize how some humans naturally feel the need to step in and help when they see another in distress.

What strategies are used to ensure the film appeals to it's target audience?

They play softer happy music at the beginning, not as upbeat as most romance movies. They introduce the two main characters right away. Based off of representation the audience can tell right away that it would be a friends/enemies to lovers romance movie.

How has technology been used effectively? 

The camera angles used, such as the what I believe was a tracking shot at the beginning was a great shot. The cutaway was super good and exactly the same each time. Also the pov shot and the non-diegetic sound of the chirps in the background was super natural.

Changes in production

I dislike change a lot. However, I know that it is always coming. That's why having a backup plan is always a good idea. My opening sequences is supposed to be with my friend victor in it. Sad story short we are no longer friends. This changed many parts of my daily life because that was my bestfriend. We we're always together and most days it was only us two doing everything. At first I was a little stressed about this because not only was he one of my bestfriends but he was also the lead role for this project. I was sad about losing one of my closest friends but at the end of the day you have to get up and take charge of your responsibility. Thank God for backup plans because I would've had no idea what to do. After thinking for awhile I decided to use my brother and his friends for this project. They are in 8th grade and they know me because of the few times they have came over. I'm not 100% sure who is going to play what role yet however, I know the script will stay...

Movie Convection: All the bright places

 The film all the bright places released in 2020 was very unique. Based off the book the movie is a teenage love story. This movie is not like others because it’s a teenage love story revolving mental health. Although many other movies are similar when mentioning health, this movie is all about it. Throughout the whole movie it contains clues and hints of their mental health. I adore the character development in this movie because it’s not an obvious thing that it will end the way it does. It leaves the audience at a shock. It includes characters getting better with their own mental health while the other gets worse. They fall for each other but it doesn’t last because the male commits suicide. I honestly can’t complain about any of the elements in the film. They all come together very nicely. It’s young tragic love. That eventually becomes self love. After his death the girl becomes more self aware and attempts to better her mental health. The movie takes the audience into a compl...

      Blogging is not one thing that I ever expected to do, however, now that I believe I'm doing it correctly I've gotten a little bit of stress off my shoulders. I'm Nylamarie Belle and I'm in 10th grade. As a little kid I was always told I had a crazy imagination. If one were to ask my mom she would say I was reading by around the age of 4. I would go through several books a day enlarging my thoughts and asking questions about everything; I always wanted to know more. I currently don't 100% know what I'm doing in life as of right now. I do know that I have always wanted to be some sort of entertainer. In the last few years I have leveled it down to being an actress although I would call myself a triple threat. I will go to college and follow my dream of becoming a well-known actress. For as long as I can remember I have always been very good at learning whether in school or any other task. I have noticed that I definitely am a kinetic learner, when a teacher ...
