Twelve Monkeys Title Sequence

http://artofthetitle2.com/media/film/1995/12monkeys.mov

The offical title sequence for the movie "Twelve Monkeys" which I will be creating my title sequence on. Though I did think this is very badly done title sequence, for example the colour of the text doesnt stand out that well. I even checked IMBD and its the only title sequence the person has done which was for "Twelve Monkeys"

Although I did like the fact at start she had a typing on a type writer explaining the virus which is a good way to help tell story in a title sequence. I also thought the use of movement and the monkeys was done well, since part of the story was about the twelve monkeys and there was alot of running away in the movie, so the movement of the animations suggested alot.
For mine though instead using all the red which is sounding more horror and looking it too, I will do darker red with black making it more virual for example.

Tittle Squence: James Bond Golden Eye



I like this title sequence since it tells the movie really well, what James Bond is mainly about which would be girls, guns, and him traveling around the world as secret agent.
Same as the rest of his movies for example

Dexter Tittle Sequence


Dexter is a series which I have been hearing to be interest, and after watching the title sequence it seems like a very normal everyday man doing everything things. Though the close up's and action shots like cutting and blood,, was used a alot which gave it a very killer/psyco impression.
This is good since I believe that it fits the story of the series well after reading up on it and watching some episodes.

Film Review: Alice In Wonderland

So today I saw Alice in Wonderland for the 3rd time today (2 times in 3D and this time in normal), i really liked the visuals and felt like watching it again, also since my friends kept inviting me i decided to tag along.



Film: Alice in Wonderland

Director: Tim Burton

Writers: Linda Woolverton (Screenplay)
Lewis Carroll (Books)

Site IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1014759/


I really enjoyed the film because the visuals were stunning, creative, and imaginative which fits the original Alice in wonderland. I also thought it fits the type of movies Tim Burton does, where it has a crazy/insanity feel too atmosphere.
Though I did think the storyline lacked, it was a very boring piece which basically
*Spoiler alert don’t read if you don’t want to know*
It really is just like Alice in wonderland when she was a kid "the animated version" where she meets everyone they but the only difference is, she’s older and can’t remember them, then comes up with some really weird creature she has to fight which gets killed quicker than expected.

Though I doubt people will be remembering it for the storyline but more into the stunning visuals and CGI. I liked how it was shot too with a lot of close up's to show the characters emotions for example, Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, you had close up's of him smiling showing his insanity.

Overall it was a must watch 8/10

(-2 due to lack of storyline which could have been improved more detail, more action or anything)
