Title research : Eva

During the opening sequence of the film there are titles displayed eighteen.  The movie Eva is about a programmer named Alex. He returns to his home town after ten years to work on a robot boy. He uses his ten year old niece, Eva, as his muse and inspiration.The opening sequence shows many images and varying perspectives of design. They are meant to mimic the behavior of interconnected elements inside a neural network. There is incredible detail in the images. Soon the neural elements start to transform into mechanical looking tools and objects representing the elements of the robotic child. The visuals of the neural network and the mechanical objects are connotative of the elements of the a robotic being. They do not contain the spiritual and emotional elements which make up the human brain. That is why the neural networks in the opening sequences develop into machinery. Through this the genre is also reinforced. Science fiction is a genre of speculative fiction that typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as this one which would be advanced science and technology. The extremely delicate and intricate visuals show ideas which are far beyond our modern day technological platforms. To ensure it is appealing to the right audience the title sequence uses technology in motion demonstrating the futuristic elements of the genre. Through delicate and intricate details of the title sequence were made possibly through 3-D animation. This is a useful form of animation because it allows for movie designers to reproduce something that can not be produced in real life or would be to difficult to reproduce. 3-D animation is also used for efficiency. Sometimes designers find it quicker,cheaper and more practical to produce designs through technological platforms. With the use of technology the designers were also able to capture obscure angles and camera movements. Computer animation can also be more versatile when capturing certain views of something because their are no restrictions such as those found in real life. As a result their is a variation of close-ups, zooms, pans, and tilts which are produced from computer software are created.This can be used to enforce anticipation and excitement while also foreshadowing parts of the film or the main story line.
