Jelly Babies opening titles

In conjunction to my research on opening titles, I was able to impute my knowledge of the research in to my opening horror film work. As a result, I was able to conduct a sensible order on how and when I want my credits to be seen in the first few scenes of my Horror film.This was displayed through jelly babies and posted notes as shown below.

OPENING CREDITS

During last weekend and this week, I was able to do research in and out of class on opening credits of a variety of films. During my research, I was able to find out many information in which I will input in my own film.

Firstly, I found out that most opening credits are shown really fast and there's a specific order in which each title is in. In most cases, the title of film are not shown first.

Secondly, the fonts, colours and sizes of the credits always compliment the theme of the film. For example, in then film 'SE7EN', the credits have a bright red colour  and the fonts are in italics. Through this, the audiences automatically are aware of the theme of the film- horror. Moreover, I researched more on opening credits by analysing the times in which each credit was placed at in both films; 'SE7EN' and ' Vertigo'. I displayed both my analysis on a timeline which is placed at the bottom

FIRST EXPERIENCE OF EDITING MY HORROR FILM

In my lesson today, I was able to start my first day of editing my coursework horror film. This was one of my most difficult challenges to date.
My first obstacle was the simple fact that me and my partner had shot too much footage and the duration of various footage were too long. As a result, we had to cut down on a lot of material and even leave out certain scenes.

Editing was also very challenging as me and my partner had clashed a lot. Scenes that I preffered to include was not what my partner preffered and vice versa. To solve the situation, which had to emerge both scenes into the editing but cut down the duration of the scenes.

If I was to do anything differently in my editing, I would add more footage that we originally planned to add as an effect. There were many scenes we had filmed that were very unique which were never included in the editing of the film as it was too long or it didn't compliment with other scenes before or after it. However, as me and my partner continue to edit our film, we will use more effective scenes as well as video and sound effects such as blurring and foley sounds to create various moods and make every scene very effective and dynamic to watch.
