Production Blog: TITLE-ly Awesome!!


    This past Monday, I was able to finish up my film! I originally was half-way done with my titles, but since learning there should only be one title per screen, I had to edit my film and titles so that each one fit together the way I wanted. After about an hour and 15 minutes of editing, I finally finished my film! I still want to go back and edit the filters on my movie, but the overall hardest part is done! I found that there were 2 errors with my titles. The first being the fact that the black font in some of my titles blended with the screen, and became uninterpretable.  For this, I had to go back and change the color of my titles to bright, blood red. This helped them to not blend into the background, and now they stand out! The second thing I had to do was edit the times that my titles appeared.  I added titles to my film, listing the cast names as well. This meant each title was only on screen for 2.5 seconds. This was not so much an error, but rather an adjustment.

    I will continue to work on my film, seeing as the only thing I have to do it add filters! Over the next few days, I will work on editing any blogs that I have to. This includes my sound and shot script, the schedule, and the titles themselves. This may be a tedious process, but I know it will be worth it once my information is set in stone. I will also work on perfecting the titles in my film to see if I can make it look less messy and more put together.  The one main goal I hope to accomplish will be to finalize my film as well as my blogs. This is a large bulk of work that will take some time. I cant wait to see the finished products!!

Title Research: Jaws

Image
  From Art of the Title Website - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?
  The titles are displayed over a regular movie screen. This is one of the movies that I have seen where the titles role over the actual beginning 2 minutes of the movie. I found this super cool since it is exactly what I am doing. - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?
  The images prioritized in the sequence were actual shots of the movie. There was close ups of the characters, and shots and reverse shots between those who were in conversation. - What connotations do these images carry?
  These images actually don't carry a scary connotation, but the music does. The first scene shows a long shot and a point of view shot of someone swimming underwater. The music is the suspenseful jaws music that gets the audience creeped out. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? The outset lets the audience know what kind of show you are getting...

Title Research: Halloween

Image
From Art of the Title Website - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?
  The titles displayed here are the cast and credit names, such as "Directed by:". - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?
  The images that are prioritized here are actually semi- still pictures instead of animated ones. They include pictures of a crushed pumpkin that slowly starts to rise with each title until the pumpkin is alive and lit up through the eyes and mouth. The sequence slowly dims and zooms into the pumpkin until the screen is black and only the pumpkin eyes light the screen. - What connotations do these images carry?
  These images carry a scary connotation as well as set a theme for the entire movie. The movie's name is Halloween, so naturally, seeing a scary pumpkin come to life ensures the audience that this movie is exactly what it promises to be. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset?
  Like I mentioned before, the...
