Title and Further Editing


Editing

Today, we managed to put all the correct clips in order. However, we discovered a problem; one of our clips was too "jumpy" which took away the continouty out of our title sequence. To overcome this, we had to play around with clips to see which one would fit. Furthermore, after this problem was resolved we went onto adding in our titles. We decided to put our titles over the top instead of fading to a black screen. This is because we ran out of time because when editing and putting our clips together we found out they were longer than we thought. This is not a main problem as we could still successfully fit in our titles and make them look good. Overall, me and my group are doing very well with editing as any problems or challenges we have faced, we have overcome. I think to improve the way we approached editing is to look at tutorials more so that no time is wasted when figuring out what to do.

Current Title


This is our current title of our film. At the moment, we are quite sure we will use this in our opening sequence, however have not received any feedback or advice on this so we do not want to make a final decision. The reason why we decided to make our title like this is because we wanted a "creepy, mysterious, scary" effect. The reason why did white text with a black background is because when doing our research we found out it was very common and was very effective. We also decided to use sans serif font because again, it is bold, common and eye catching which will draw the audience in. Also, the "smoke" fits in with the narrative as it is a metaphor for the antagonist (boy) drifting away. I am very content with this title.

Moreover, I think me and my group are doing well as we are frequently discussing current ideas and how to improve upon them. Editing is our main issue but I think we are working good and will meet the deadlines. We have one last bit of filming to do which will then (hopefully) fit into our sequence nicely.
