Saffrons Childrens Film Homework.

Toy story begins by having the iconic distrubution logo of the Walt Disney Castle, which immediately meets the expectations of the target audience of young children as they know it will be a good quality family film, also that it is rated a 'U' or 'PG', which is then followed by the well known Pixar Animated Studios logo. There is then a cut to a panning shot which seems mysterious as there a various cardboard boxes which have been made into buildings, much like a small child would be doing at home for fun, so they can relate to this, then out of the blue one of the characters 'Mr Potato Head' which shows the children he's being played with by a young child, so they can also relate to this as they will most likely have played with toys like this at home and enjoy it. The child in the film ( Andy ) when he is playing with the toys he makes it clear that there is a protagonist, and antagonist within his imaginary play time. At about 2 minutes in, there is the beginning of the title sequence, the font is just simple, and white, which is fine for a childrens film, as they can clearly see it and it doesnt need to be fancy when they are in a mind set of playtime. Straight after it says Walt Disney Pictures there is a shot where it shows the young boy 'Andy' and he is dressed up like the toy he is holding, 'Woody' and this can also be related back to the target audience as young children regualary dress up as their icon, or hero/heroine etc.
