Heroes and Villains


Villain
Green Goblin

Hero
Spiderman
Setting

The Green Goblin has 2 personalities. Without realising Spidermans enemy is the dad of his best friend in his civilian life.


Spiderman has 2 identities, one as a normal student from New York and the other as a Superhero.
Costume

He wears a green costume underneath bulletproof chainmail with an overlapping purple tunic. His mask has a built-in gas filter to keep him safe from his own gasses.

The dark green colour of his costume resembles a goblin associating he is bad.






The costume is mostly blue with red gloves, boots, and mid-section. Peter designed a web pattern that covers the red portions of the suit, starting at the mask. The suit also has a black spider in the center of the chest and a larger red spider on the back. The mask has plastic lenses with a chrome covering that allow Peter to see out, but no one can see in. The lenses also protect Peter's eyes from dust particles while he is swinging through the city. In addition, the mask helps to conceal Peter's identity by muffling his voice, thus making it unrecognizable to others

Physicality

Through the use of technology he gained his powers so there are no real physical differences from a normal person on the street.


Peter was a slim nerdy guy until he was bitten by the spider giving him his super hero powers. He then built up more muscle and became more of the stereotypical superhero.

‘Helpers’ (icons)

He has a distant relationship with his son Harry who resents his father's apparent favoritism toward his friend Peter Parker. Norman takes an immediate liking to Peter when he is informed that Parker can understand his work, and later admires Parker's desire to make his own way in the world, rather than accepting Osborn's help.


One of Spidermans weaknesses is his family and the potential romance with Mary Jane. The best way for the Green Goblin to get to him is to get his family and or Mary Jane.


For our final video, there is an element of heroes and villains. With Tom Benson being the hero by the end of the film and Sam Carter becoming the villain. The table above shows from Spiderman how heroes and villains are represented.

Johny English Opening

We decided to look into the opening of Johnny English as it is a film that is a cross between Drama and Comedy.
The first 45 seconds of the opening scene is set in very low-key lighting, they have used this to increase the tension and drama and to emphasise the action part of the film. After this they begin to use high-key lighting as the more light hearted side to the film comes out.  
The main opening starts about 5 minutes into the film where the main titles occur and Johnny English is properly introduced.

Hello,
I am currently studying Media Studies at Ken Stimpson School and our
task this year is to make an opening scene to a movie. I am writing to
ask permission to use your song Rolling in the deep by artist Adele. I
am a huge fan and the chance to use her track in our video would be a
pirvelage.

Thankyou for your time
Yours sincerely,
Solomon Ilett

Main Project - Titles

Titles - (04/03/11)

We wanted to produce suitable titles that we could include in our final opening scene. We had previously research and analysed opening scene and the titles they had used in similar films to our genre.
We viewed the final edit, and payed particular attention to the most suitable areas of were the titles could have been located, and also the transitions used to enable the titles to appear and then disapear with he beat of the non-digetic music.

Order of posts

While we was constructing our main project, we had sometimes forgotten to post up some of the research and work on the main project, we will be posting all work tha we have done.
