Journal-Filming Test Footage

On the 16th January we started to begin filming for our title sequence. We started by using a corridor in our school, this was because our first idea was to use a office area. This is a piece of our footage.




After we looked over all the footage we thought it would be necessary to re-film, perhaps look at our cinematography and the location. We are looking for a 1950/60s look which is quite hard to do with a school so we may have to consider changing our location to somewhere timeless.  

Audience Typography Feedback

As a group we felt it was important to see what other people thought about our typography for a title sequence, we gave out some hand-outs and explained what the film is about. Two of the typographies were very popular with the audience which, we now plan to use for our title sequence. I think the two most popular typography seemed to stand out and easy to understand which may be the reason for it popularity. Below are some scanned copy's of our feedback forms    

StoryBoards



Journal-Google Calendar

In todays lesson our group set up a google calendar that will everyone in the group with organisation and communication issues which we have had in the last few weeks, the main purpose of our google calendar was to keep up to date and keeping to deadlines so we can finish our title sequence on time. 
Below is a sheen shot of what our google calendar.

Animatics





Above is the animatics video our group has made from our storyboard, the reason for creating this video was to show our title sequence in real time. It gives us an idea on what the title sequence will look like once  finished. 

Journal

In Wednesday's lesson we began to work on our storyboard to help make our title sequence.

We knew what we wanted to film and how we wanted to edit but we needed to create the storyboard to stick with so we don't go off course. We also had to put don the transitions that we will be using, the movement of the camera plus diegetic and non-diegetic sound. 

Once this is done we will be adding them to Final Cut to make a animatic that will help so timing of our title sequence idea.
