Font Choice

These are a few fonts we have looked at for our opening title sequence, using the website Dafont.com. we found fonts that reflect on our genre, which is horror.

we've chosen this font as most horror fonts can to be too complicated, and hard to read.The font reminds me of scratches in a wall, which relates to our horror theme as it connotes despair or struggle, which usually occurs in horrors.
This font is the more obvious horror font, as the splashes around the letters look like blood. The font reminds me of writing used for the Tv show ''Dexter''.  
This is the last font we've chosen. This particular font reminds me of paint brush strokes, this could connote to blood if it was being brushed across a wall, or messages written in blood.

Music

For a long time my group were disagreeing on the music we should use for our opening title sequence, until finally we agreed on the piece of music called 'The house on the hill'
    

We chose this music as it fits our opening title sdequence perfectly, the low to high pitch changes work well with our editing, Also sudden low to high pitch changes are usually used in horror sequences as the sound of quick change connotes fear.



Location Recce

Script

Timeline

In this lesson we learnt how and when crediting appears over the course of a title sequence. Our task was to pick any films opening title sequence, and to create our own timeline, writing down every credit that appeared and the precise moment of when it appeared during the title sequence. 

The sequence i chose to analyse was 'Man of Steel'. It was 1:39 minutes long and contained 20 crediting titles.
The films credits followed the usual order which we had learnt in the lesson (least to most significance)
