Title Opening Example

This is the title 'Apartment 6 ' entrance for our film title sequence. We used the idea from our research from youtube at this example someone done . ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6rrkYPaG4A&safe=active ) . When the actors names and ect come up on this clip , we liked the effect of the names moving around and flashing.We took this idea for when our title appears for our title sequence itself and this our example shown above.

How we done it ?
I opened final cut pro and made blank clip and added a  text box and added 'Apartment 6 ' as our text and so far the chosen font ........ Next I copied and pasted that clip a number of times next to each other , and moved the text' Apartment 6' in different locations so the title moves around after each clip ends. But still keeping the font and size the same. In addition , I overlapped two clips to make the font more bold but give off a  scary and possessed effect ect just like the mothers handwriting in the diary.

- This is a print screen of two of the titles to show example of overlapping the same text to make it look bold ect. Like mentioned above.

In addition , after playing the footage , we decided with the music that the titles should move around 5 times and in the last shot , it will appear in a larger font across the screen and fade away into the darkness , before the actual title sequence appears. Also , for one of the titles when it moves around for the 2nd and 3rd time , we changed the color of the background font to red to suggest to audience that 'Death' has happened in this apartment wether in the past or for what is going to happen in the film.

 - Example of the idea of the text in the red font to suggest  'Death'. 

For this title opening scene , we just used the cut effect tool to make it more sharp and fast paced for the audience to build up suspense for the audience  .


Finally , we decided to use the same music that going to played throughout the title sequence 'Awareness 2 ' but for now we used the example of the youtube video we got this idea from music by converting the video to MP3. Over the top , so we have two piece of music playing to sound more scary and so the sounds effect go with the movement of the text. We used the youtube MP3 for the moment to get a ruff idea what it will look like once we found the piece of music to go over the top , however we feel like this works perfect and shall be looking out to find a sound effect just like that for when the texts move in the opening title scene.


The whole footage completed  to show what it looks like ,  just for the opening of our title in final cut pro.
