Finished Title Sequence
As our film doesn't include long scenes of footage or complicated settings it was easy and quick to film.

Reading through our blog we realised that we have never properly explained our storyline, which may make some of our ideas quite confusing. Although we are only making the title sequence, we need to know where the film is going so we can show relating imagry in our title sequence.
We are going to use white. This represents his clear, naive and innocent ideas when young against the dark and disturbing images (shown behind) of his adulthood.
Size
The sizes will vary as each title will flicker and move between the ranges of size 10-size 18.
Position
The title will appear in different places depending on its relationship with other aspects of the shot. It will very rarely be central within in the shot. This will help to distort, alter and adjust the mise-en-scene of each shot.
Action
The title will flicker and blur. It will be un-focus and re-focus within the shot.
Duration/Speed
The title will flicker and move quite quickly but the wording itself will be on the screen for an approximate duration of 3-4 seconds.
Transitional Effects
The title will just appear within the shot.

The first shots we decided to film were the ones of a girl slitting her wrist. We used the makeup that we brought in town to make it look it look as realistic as possible. It was quite difficult to apply, but we think we achieved the desired effect. We used Alex's wrist and the rest of us applied the stage makeup.
As we havn't yet put any music or sounds to our animatic, we have been looking in class at possible non-diagetic and diagetic sounds for our title sequence.

Here is an initial basic prop list (I'm sure, however, that we will end up adding stuff as we begin to prepare for our rough cut):

SAUL BASS (1920-1996) was not only one of the great graphic designers of the mid-20th century but the undisputed master of film title design thanks to his collaborations with Alfred Hitchcock, Otto Preminger and Martin Scorsese.

Whilst we were drawing our storyboard, we began to think about the credits we would need to include in our titles. We listed a group of the most commonly used ones which we found by watching other thriller title sequences. We will include:

For our homework we were asked to analyse a thriller opening title sequence. As a group we devided up the different catorgories and all chose one to write about. I will be writing about the sound and how it tells the audience what the film will be about and how it builds suspence.
