1. The research I did for the production titles involved trying to find appropriate text fonts for our film I
searched though Cooltext.com to find a font that was appropriate for the film and that looked good
eventually I settled on a font called DInosaur Jr Plane which looked good for what we were doing but
the rest of the group said the font was too thick so using Photoshop I made the font look thinner so it
worked perfectly for the titles.
Some of the films I looked at for ideas were se7en and catch me if you can; I used the simplistic credits
from se7en as the titles are just white words on a black background but I changed the plain white text to
a steady gradient from white to black as the effect work a lot better than the plain colour. I used catch
me if you can’s titles to help come up with the creative part of the title which is the photoshop’ed to help
the tiles fit the theme better
This is the font that we eventually decided to use for our final
titles but after some discussion we decided to edit the font to make it thinner and more unique to
each individual letter being different to each other eventually we settled on this.
This text has been edited to make the letters thinner and I
changed the background so it was more appropriate to the dark creepy theme of the film.The letters
are each individually edited to help a boost the uniqueness of our film and to add a creepy aura to
the lettering the letter is also designed to look like chalk which make people think about nails down
a chalk board to make the viewer feel something about the text.
