Planning Blog: Title Design

 Hey guys and welcome back to my blog! Today, I am going to discuss the designs of our titles for our final task. 


For the film , all the tiles are going to come onto the screen the same way. We are going to have them slowly appear on the screen and all of them will be in the middle. The titles will appear on the screen in a windshield wiper type effect. You will see part of the title fade onto the screen from one side until it's the full title showing. This helps creates the effect we want it to have on our audience. It helps creates that effect we ant because the fade onto the screen slowly will give the audience that anticipation that we want. We will put it all to the middle of the screen and we want it to be very minimalistic because we want the audience to have a focus on the opening sequence while the font of the titles adds to our genre while not overpowering. 


Next , let's talk about how long each title will be on screen. We want to have each title on the screen for about 3 seconds but we want to base it kind of off the importance of the title as well. In this film , we will have the title of our film and the director name be longer than all the others but the title will still be the longest by 2 seconds at least.



The font we chose for our titles My group and I chose this font because we think it just adds more to our horror genre. The dripping on the letters would represent blood. We would have it be bold in whatever color we choose to give that "on edge" vibe to add onto the scary element of having the blood dripping. To enhance the blood aspect, we chose. We think the red enhances the blood giving more of a spooky aspect and creates a sense of fear for the audience which is what we want. We also felt this color would stand out in comparison to others.


The sizing of the titles would of course be different for different aspects and things that are more important. For example, the title of the movie would for sure be such a large text in comparison to the other titles. We also will make sure the title would be smaller than the name. So for example, if we are looking at "Directed By: Marvin Exantus", the "Directed By" would be kind of smaller than the name.  The size of the title would be AROUND THIS SIZE  while the name is AROUND THIS SIZE. Everything will be coordinated with one another using all the same when it comes to color size and font.



We think the choices we made will come off very well. We think it will work with typical horror genre conventions and we think the dripping blood will set us apart and be very unique. All will work together and come together to be great.

Intro Blog

Hello, I am Marvin and I am the son of a full Haitian dad and a full African-American mother. I am the oldest child out of all my siblings. On my mom's side I have a little sister named Malaysia and I have a 3 month old brother on my dad's side named Mayson. In the future, I hope to be a lawyer and maybe even go into politics.  I am not sure what type of lawyer I want to be yet due to the vast variety of types of lawyers there are or what law school I would want to go to. For undergraduate if I stay in state I for sure want to go to the University of Florida. If I'm being optomisitc, I would love to be able to go to an Ivy League school for undergraduate school but using my bright futures might be the best option. Right now, I am currently the Class of 2025 President and I am also apart of the Mock Trial Team. My favorite part of being on the mock trial team is the people for sure, they always have the best jokes and are very supportive of anything anyone does. I like being...

Group Blog

Hey everyone it's Marvin and welcome to my blog! For the group project, I chose my two teammates to be Kyra Myers and Mya Aly. Kyra and Mya both have media studies a different period than I. While I have media studies 8th period, they have it 5th period. I chose Mya and Kyra to be in my group because I have a really great connection with the both of them. When I first met them, it was almost like an instant connection. Giving some background, I first met Kyra all the way back in 6th grade when we both attended Nova Middle. We both had the same science class. On the first day, we talked for the first time in the cafeteria at lunchtime if my memory serves correctly. I met Mya the first week of 9th grade year in 1st period. Mya would help me with memorizing the material, she would give me the ins and outs, and show me the ropes. All three of us are on the mock trial team which helps our connection with one another. Being on the mock trial team together, we all have to spend a lot of t...

Production Blog

 Production Blog Welcome back to my blog everyone. Now that my group and I finished our filming aspect, there's one more aspect we need to do for our commercial. This aspect is to edit and put final touches. So, we edited this commercial in 1 day. I was not heavily involved in the editing process. My group mate Mya was definitely the main editor of our commercial. She edited the commercial and sent it to us via text message when she was finished. When watching the editing that she did, there were a few problems Kyra and I noticed. We noticed specifically a problem with the transitions. We could see that the transition from scene 4 to 5 cut of the words one of our subject was saying. When the subject was trying to introduce himself and say his name, the transition came in too quick. Kyra and I saw this and we asked Mya to fix it. Another thing I noticed was wrong with the commercial, was the lack of commercial feeling. By the lack of commercial feeling, I was specifically relating t...
