British Film Institute

On Thursday 19th November, we travelled as a group to Southbank to witness a lecture to help us for our coursework side of Media Studies.

Corin Hardy, the director of The Hallow, was my favourite part of the whole day because we saw an insight as to how much planning is involved. Also, he showed us the first 5 minutes of this film and when they stopped  it, it made me want to go see it because it was so intriguing and the shots were so simple but effective. Definitely the best part of the whole day.
                                                     
                                                       This is just before we saw Corin 





Overall, this trip was beneficial as it has helped me start thinking about ideas for the titles in our opening. Looking at James Bond's title sequence it was too much I thought for a film like ours but when I saw the opening of The Hallow, I was admired by how simple the shots were and where the titles were put in the frame. That made me start to think about what our shots could be like and how we can fit the titles in.
