Helloo!! Welcome back or welcome to my blog! In this post, I have chosen 3 movies that have sparked my interest and I will be analyzing them in terms of construction.
1. Juno

Firstly, in the quirky coming-of-age movie Juno, can see a light-hearted, good-vibed opening scene. Interestingly, Juno's title sequence transforms from real-life film to a live- action animated version while still keeping the main character -Juno- in her natural state. This style choice says a lot about the movie. It shows the light-heartedness of the film, but by keeping the color scheme realistic and timid in the animation, it maintains the seriousness of the movie. For instance, if the animation color scheme were to be way more saturated and vibrant, it could appear child-like, happy, and innocent. While all good qualities, this is not fitting for Juno. Given the fact that the movie includes hardships and unconventional struggles, it is fitting that the animation (which can often be perceived as child-like) remains realistic, edgy, and striking.
2. THE FLORIDA PROJECT

Secondly, I chose to analyze the title sequence of The Florida Project. Right off the bat, we can see that this opening scene is very vibrant, highlighting pink, purple, and blue hues. This immediately strikes a sense of child-like wonder and energy. This is made very clear by the silliness of the three kids as well. Looking more specifically into the actual title card, the nostalgic-purple background reinforces the sense of childhood wonder and whimsicality. This is fitting because although the movie is focused on the realistic hardships of poverty, we see most of it through the eyes of a adventurous little girl. In addition, the cursive font also promotes that playful, whimsical vibe, reinforcing that naive enchantment explored throughout the entire film.
3.LadyBird
Lastly, let's look at the title sequence of Lady Bird.Lady Bird is a coming-of-age movie that follows the life of a high school senior as she goes through the challenges of growing up and relationships. The movie has themes of self-discovery, friendship, and the challenges of mother-daughter relationships. Throughout the scene, the setting is in school and it creates an understanding of who the main character is and her environment. The title sequence accurately portrays the angsty aesthetic of the film.While details about the movie are not specifically mentioned in the provided clip, the overall consensus is that the title sequence accurately sets the warm yet quirky tone of the movie. You can tell by the font used and the background that they both match aesthetics.
