Editing

We done some really good work on editing this font, it has a really good jittery scary effect  and makes what makes the title sequence a lot more scarier and gives a clear vision of what genre the film is.

We opened a new final cut pro and started messing about with the text seeing what we could do with it. So we went on youtube and looked at some horror title sequences and then we used some of the ideas we came across on youtube. The idea we decided to use has the writing appearing in one place and cuts quickly to another place and gives it scary a feel. We took some tutorials on how to do editing and than we started to create the titles for the title sequence and is coming together really well together.

The text here is overlapping so it appears in different parts of the screen.

At first we was doing it all on the one slide and it looked terrible and because we are not really familiar with final cut but I suggested to dan if he could overlap the text and he did that, then copy and pasted the text and posted it above the original slide and it than give it a really good jumpy effect .

After the paramount intro we faded it to black and the font appears and is jumping around the screen which gives a jittery, disturbed and creepy feel to it and which is one of our targets. Half way through the very the short clip of the apartment 6 font  appearing, we changed the colour of the font to experiment what it looks like. The font is white through out the title sequence and the font changes colour once and quickly. We chose the colour red as it connotates evil , danger , blood and many other frightful things along the the same lines. When the title is heading towards the end we altered the size of the font and held it still just to emphasize the title and to prepare them for the rest of the title sequence. 

We got the idea of the moving text from a video on youtube called 'Horror Title Sequence'

We kept the same music 'Awareness 2' but on the at the font we took some sound effects from youtube which makes a noises as the writing moving. The foley sound of this is really good but we have encountered some problems firstly there is a track is playing in the background. We need to find another song to play after so it doesn't sound so weird when it stops.  Also we don't know what the noise is so we can't remake it if we can discover what the noise is, we will make the foley sound ourself.

Overall we are making good progress on the title sequence and getting the font nearly completed is making the project less stressful because I believe right now we are on the right track.
