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.
