Blog 25: Title sequence

Title Sequence

    HEY HEY HEY!!!! Capitalized Hey!! I'm so glad to welcome you back with another blog. Today, I am spilling a little more details of the film. To be blunt, this is the best part. Even way before StoryBoarding, I was making sure in every way to be creative about title sequencing. We came up with multiple ideas such as beginning/ending credit, or random title sequence. It's been tough. 

    Nevertheless, to pursue an modern Hollywood film quality, we need something more than just classic. Like an unique ingredient stirs up the flavor of a dish. Considering this a less than 2 minutes long video, we don't want the title sequence to occupy or over expand through out the movie. The key here is to meticulously throw the name in as

natural as possible. Since, this is an opening of a movie, we crossed out the option of ending title sequence. We initiated with the beginning title sequence idea. However, this option requires us to create a little "non-plot" scene so the audience would most likely pay their attention to the title sequence. 

     Due to time limit, we decided to move on to ending tittle sequence.  If we were to employ title sequence at the end of our footage, it requires some background with name scrolling through out. This is an interesting idea, but it wouldn't go with the theme. Our topic is creating a filming opening, it would make much sense if we decided to put the title sequence at the end of the film. In additionally, the idea of 'throwing' in names randomly at the corner border of some continuous scene in the beginning. Originally, we agreed to end up with this idea, but we found a better one that effortlessly blend in well with the theme. We recorded some close up scene with Gigi doing her make up and each close up action will show an individual name on it. For example, a close up shot with overhead angle on the eye shadow pallet and the name will appear right on it. Then, Gigi will open the eyes pallet and pick up some powder from the pallet. As we wipe away the product, the name will appear on the powder portion.
