My partner and I aren’t too experienced with making movies, but we knew that Deadpool had one of the greatest title sequences ever (for an action comedy a least)… However, it is difficult to ignore the fact that its extremely difficult to have a shot where everything is frozen in time as the camera moves around to cover the entire setting. But, remember as well as being a super talented and handsome stunt devil. I am also a creative genius (said no one ever). Therefore coming up with a way to implement this type of title sequence is going to be as simple as 1..2..3 (again said no one ever). Deadpool shows us how you can create a gruesome, super-violent action sequence seem like a gleeful sequence of unfortunate events. This is something we want to for sure take into account when we are creating this film. In addition to providing our film with the silly, freeze frame action sequences, we also want to implement the breaking of the fourth wall. This will reduce the seriousness of the context and provide a source comedic relief.
In addition to taking some aspects from the movie Deadpool, we want to implement some aspects of the action comedy film Guardians of the Galaxy. We would do this by inserting a sort of background of the character. Possibly showing his previous stressors or a couple days before. Maybe the office worker being assigned a huge assignment. This will give the audience a sense of mystery and suspense. Not knowing what is actually happening or what may happen. Like the title sequence of Guardians of the Galaxy, the main character will be partaking in the task which he was assigned and getting madly invested. Almost to the point where he will want to break and stop everything. However, as this all occurs the music in the background will not correspond to the things happening. It will be happy and upbeat, whereas the typical corresponding music should be angry and stressful. This will again, create a sense of comedic relief and not like a suspenseful, serious movie.
