When images from the Spiderman 2 comic book are shown, the way chose to show it, the
effects the used makes it look as thoughsomeone is flicking through the comic book really fast
and it makes it look as though the images are moving because of this. Animation is used
throughout the whole of the opening credit scene, as there is a spider web that is being
created in the background most the way through it so this is always moving and also the colour
of it changes a lot depending what is going on in the rest of that scene, sometimes the web is
black sometimes a glowing yellow. Animation is used for the way everything enters the screen
such as the text and the images, most of them seem to fly on the scene.
Advanced techniques:
Blur, Sharpen, Distortion, Rotation, Opacity
Rotation is also used throughout with the web moving constantly as they have made it look as
though it is being made. It is also used for the way the pictures appear on the screen
everything is constantly moving around everywhere.
Technical comments:
Video Format, Screen Ratio, Resolution,
Frame rate, Compression
The resolution that this has been shown in is just standard TV definition. And the resolution for
this is 4:3; this means that for every 4 units wide it is also 3 units high. There are 24 frames per
seconds as it is a standard film, there for there is less strobbing and jerkiness, making it overall
appears better to the viewers and not have any gaps or come across as being shown shakily.
