Title Research : Dunya and Desi

In the beginning sequence of the film Dunya and Desi there twenty-one titles displayed. The story revolves around two eighteen-year-old best friends who are experiencing their own personal crises which leads them to the same country on their own adventures. There is a pattern of feminine and girl imagines prioritized in the opening sequence. There are female products scattered all over the opening credits such as makeup, magazines and other miscellaneous items that would be found in a young women's room. This is likely representative of their age and signifies that they are still young and growing because it looks significantly of how an older women's room would look. There are also several photos showcased of Dunya and Desi. Many of their photos together are prioritized in the opening sequence because their friendship is what drives the plot. It is important to the development of the story line. The images are directly connotative in showing the audience that Dunya and Desi are best friends who play a big role in each others lives and that they are still maturing and growing together. The genre of the film is comedy. The messy and unorganized images can reinforce comedy. As compared to a horror or thriller the opening sequence is very playful and all over the place. To make its appeal to its target audience it creates a disorganized sequence which many people can relate to and find amusing. People are often satisfied when plot lines and characters are realistic and relate able to it's audience. The opening sequence was done with real props and a camera. This allows for traditional camera work such as zoom ins and zoom outs. The role of the movements in the opening sequence are to show off the titles. I think it was very clever for the designers to fit the names of the titles into objects in the room. The camera does a good job making sure that the titles are visible and stand out even though that they disorganized a bunch of other objects but focusing on the titles and making them stand out from everything else.
