Fight Sequence (Foley Sounds)

This is our fight sequence. The fighting here isn't what we was aiming for it was to practice with the foley sounds. What we done basically we used foods we hit bacon and snapped celery and other stuff. We also stamped on the floor and used a voice over as well The good thing about foley sounds you use your imagination and come up with good sound effects.

Typography

Today I will be viewing some types of fonts that can be used for our title sequence. We need something that connotes a horror. I'll be something that  has blurry quick jittery look to it which brings a creepy and disturbed effect to the film. I think a clear white see through font may fit well with the title sequence, which will represent ghosts and a mysterious atmosphere .  It's important the the typography  fits with the genre of film for example we would not use a colour like yellow to represent something scary, although it could represent cowardly.

Importance of typography:
Style/Mood
Genre
Theme

Se7en
The typography of the opening title sequence suggests that this film could be a horror considering that all the names are scribbled or cut quite frantically. The typography in se7en could also suggest that the film is based on someone slightly deranged or that the film genre could be a deranged thriller.
The writing jitters a lot and has a lot of sudden movement which I think yet again links back to the character being possibly deranged or mentally ill.

Catch Me If You Can
It is hard to pinpoint exactly what genre the film is by the font,  but the credits unravel many escape routes for one of the characters during the title sequence, which clearly shows that this character is trying to get away from someone, because of this I expect that the film genre will be thriller.  The  font is very simple but it could be from a typewriter as some of the credits are coming out the typewriter which also features in a key element of the film and also sets a certain time period. The colour of the font changes through the title sequence which I think matches what is going during the title sequence which features a man change his appearance so this could suggest he is disguising himself to get away from his chaser.

I think all the lines that are coming from the credits resemble a title sequence from the famous great saul bass 'The Man With The Golden Man'.

Tour of the Set/Apartment

Feedback on our first shoot

Feedback on our first shoot After uploading our videos we found out they're just too dark. They looked good on the camera but it turned out a lot darker on the MACs. We will we have to re-do every shot again in better lighting and if we want to make it darker we shall edit the lightning afterwards. One of the videos was completely pitch black which was disappointing because it looked good first time round on the camera but after being uploaded you cannot see a thing. Taking some positives from the the first shoot, it well help us learn from our errors and we know it's easier to make a video light and if you want to make it dark than edit it after being uploaded. Although the videos will not be able to be used we got a feel for the apartment that we are working in and starting to begin throwing in some good ideas. Hopefully next time round will get some useful shots.

Shooting

This an image of mine,james and dans group calendar so we plan our events on there so we all know and our all aware of our plans so there is no excuses. Yesterday we went to the apartment we are recording and began to take some shots for our title sequence.We made some good progress and took shots of a character entering the apartment and had the character scavenging around the apartment and looking through his parents belongings. We also recorded a loft opening by itself basically by putting someone up there and letting it drop. We put together some really good ideas so it'll be good to go again another time to bring some more props to help us complete our title sequence.

This is a facebook group chat which we will use to communicate and speak about dates that will be available to meet up and make our title sequence
