How has research effected our planning?

Research has played a big part in planning as it helps identify what everyone is most interested in and what they prefer to see in a movie.

The main types of research that help are the usual googling or just looking things up one the internet, though you would be researching for ages, as there is a wide range and not a limited amount of people. A more reliable and easy way of finding out what people like is actually asking them, either asking them, getting them to write down what they like, or to make it easier for everyone, create a survey, which is something that we did.

Here is a survey that was made by someone else, this helped us during our research as we could see that action/adventure was the most common movie people enjoyed seeing.

Comedy came second, this could help us if we wanted to add something else to our title sequence.

We came up with the idea that all James Bond movies involved action and adventure, this led us to the idea of doing a spy espionage, we would include things that relate or are similar to movies like 007 and mission impossible (those are just the most recognisable).

From looking at different spy espionages, we can see that the good guy or the 'spy' is typically well and/or in a suit. There is usually a female role in which is being saved and a bad guy (though these are not entirely necessary in the title sequence, but knowing what is in a spy espionage can help you understand how to identify the genre of a movie from the title sequence).

Looking at locations, we came to the conclusion of basing our title sequence in London as James Bond, being a spy is stereotypically British.
