Dans feedback

We made dan watch our title sequence how we have done it so far , he like it and he thinks that it is much better than the one we showed him a few weeks ago meaning we have improved it and listened to his other feedback.
This time he only had 2 critics to say about it.:

1) His not to sure on the colour red for our title 'Watched'

2) The shot with the phone he says that its like dialogue and doesn't fit in.

we listened to his feedback and will addd to it. However, we do not agree with his comment about 'red' as we are using that colour because it is what has inspired us from the film take. But we have took on his other comment and we are going to improve for next time he watches it.

Motion



I experimented with motion to see what type of interesting titles we could use. 'summer borland' is the actress playing the main character and i used her name to give me an idea o what all the other titles would look like. The bottom image shows that i tried different angles to make it more interesting.






Editing process.

  In the editing process , I went through all image control to see what effects will be useful to use in our title sequence. I came across 3 effects that I liked and which will link with our theme of thriller/horror, and as we are doing a discreet title sequence these effects will show throughout the title sequence. I chose the dark and mysterious colours to give of the mysterious vibe to the audience. One I got the hang of it it was easier and quicker for me to edit shots and put effects on them with out any struggle. 
Another editing process I repeated though out what to dissolve shots over one another to create a dramatic feeling and looks more professional.

Below are screenshots of the effects I used and how I used them:




For this shot I used a negative effect, as it shows the setting I thought it would give of a negative vibe which links to our thriller title sequence.

For this shot I chose a sepia effect and I repeated it throughout the sequence on different shots that I thought would look good.



I also used a negative effect here but i repeated the shot , so all shots are in different effects to carry on the descreet title sequence.

This is just a screen shot of my editing process and how I put on the effects.

Categorizing title sequences










Task 15 analysing High School Drama (Easy A)

This is some of the work I have completed in class, in which i had to analyze the camera, editing, mise-en-scene and sound of a High School Drama called Easy A.






editing process- 9/2/2015

As we have changed our title sequence to a discreet sequence I have been experimenting with the editing. I have done quick rapid shots so we don't give to much of the story away but also made it quite scary and gloomy for the audience to watch.

As a group we changed it because we was influenced by the title sequences;

Arlington road
















Seven













We was influenced wight the odours and the shots that have been used in these sequences.
Also the music you could hear whilst we watched these sequenced made an impact on what our music wanted to be like.



Update on title sequence


We are currently in the middle of editing our title sequence through garageband as we are adding all of the non-diagetic and diagetic sounds to make our title more effective. This is coming along very well as we are using sounds that fit into the theme of the title sequence. 




This is a screenshot we have taken which Beau is currently editing while Bushra is making the titles through motion capture. We decided to voice record my self on one of our phones of different recordings of me saying things that will be said in the film. This has worked out well as it combines with the images that come up when there is a voiceover of different memorable sayings.
