Death Race Analysis

This film is an influence to us, as in the start of death race their main character gets framed of killing his wife. And in our film the same thing happens our main character gets framed of killing his wife and goes to jail. Also in death race the character escapes from jail and this happens in our film too, as our character escapes from jail but we won’t be filming our character escape we will just film once he has escaped. The bits that influence us are in the 11th minuet up until the 13th minuet
This is where the character has been framed:

Camera work:
The camera work in this film has lots of close ups, so you can see the emotions on the actors faces. also in this film they use lots of different types of camera work, as they film lots of clips from different angles and vary between close ups and long range shots, in our film we would like to have multiple clips with different camera work like they have used in death race. There are different shots used as well which allows you to see more of the scenery, so you can get more of a feel for the surroundings.
This is one of the close ups that we would like to do:

This is another shot that we like, the over shoulder shot:

Sound:
The sound that we like in this film is fast and loud action music, in our film we are hoping to use this type of music too.

This screen shot is where the action music reaches the highest intensity:

Titles:
Some of the titles in this film are small and discreet the colour of them is white so they don’t look to out of place. They have made the titles look very professional by having a normal font and the size of the text is a small and then they have made the title white. But they do have a variety of titles and they also have effects on titles, one of the effects on the titles is that they have made it so it looks like it is being typed across the screen. Then titles also jolt as they move to the next title, they jolt because of the moving of the engine in the background, there is also another effect where the title mirrors itself and this is to do with the movement of the engine as well. They also have added a word that is in red and capital letter amongst the normal text, they have done this top make it stand out and show the seriousness.

This is the plain title:

This is where the title jolts:

This is where they have added a bit of colour and capital letters to show the seriousness:
