Title Research: Five Feet Apart

 Five Feet Apart is a 2019 teen romance film. I found this movie in the romance section on Netflix. Netflix is very organized when it comes to movie genres. Being in this class I learned where the moving opening ends and it was very easy to watch and understand on my own without a website that specifically tells me where to stop.

What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? 

It starts with the film companies logo. Along with the title of the movie are the only titles in the opening.

What images are prioritized in the opening sequences? 

The very beginning starts with a baby and then clips that seem to be filmed on a non-professional camera. Like they were made for fun on someone's phone filled with cheerful clips

What connotations do these images carry? 

These images start the movie off happily. The audience will assume that it is a joyful film based on the happy videos and pictures they seen. Especially since there was nothing but the happy clips 

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

The voice over talks about touch, as they show happy clips. People having fun and hugging each other. Simply being being in each other's presence. Physical touch is a form of love. The joy they have being around each other with all the laughter and smiles shows so much love not only from one specific significant other but also friends and family.   


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

The opening starts off with a song that is almost like a lullaby. Also a person starts speaking right away. As if they are talking straight to the audience. This gains the interest of the audience because it gives them something to relate to right away  

How has technology been used effectively? 

I think they used different cameras to get the phone recording effect. The editing of everything together was nicely done. Also the voice over was very clear through the the low background music.
