Sound

This is the first draft of our soundtrack, we decided to make the sound sound a little muted. It sounded fine on final cut pro but has distorted a little bit when uploaded to youtube, which we will have to correct.

-make foley sound (typing, mouse clicking???)



-Use this for intro titles (tall productions/ A zombie movie???)

Costumes (Plan)

This is a plan of the clothes that our protagonists would wear (of something to that effect). Throughout the shoot, our actors will wear something to this effect. 

Principal Shoot

We met up round my house at roughly 11.30 am. We then went to Bostall Woods (while it was raining).

We took a series of photographs of the locations we would take photos and videos for  our title sequence.

These are the locations we will be using for taking photographs and videos for our title sequence.

Update

During this lesson we went through our schedule and decided that tomorrow, we would go out and take photos for our principal shoot. Today we all updated our blogs and started to collect and create photos for the profiles of our three protagonists.

Production Plan

Font notes

In Leanne's lesson we began talking about font types and a class analysis of a few title sequences.

Catch Me If You Can
-Smooth
-Flowy
-Sense of constant movement (characters are constantly moving/running away)
-2 fonts represent two different characters
San serif font - outlaw, the font is changing and moving
serif font - official, government, western? FBI Agent
-clear fonts, easy to read
-Saul Bass esque (lines and colour)

Lord of War
-White font - dark background
-Small, centered
-Bullet - dehumanises - not attached to characters
-San serif font
-Soviet writing - Russian, cold war, warish
-military cap letters (serious, no humour, unemotional)
-printed in metal
-Actors names - centered, lesser actors and crew to side
-roles - simplier - rounded, constrast

Forrest Gump
-Serif font
-plain, long (stretched)
-white - purity
-older- more traditional font/film
-newsprint
-slow paced, soft and steady, gentle
-fades in, soft and gentle

Fonts

From our questionnaire, we had decided that this font was our favourite, however we had decided to play around with the font top make it more interesting. 

This is our font plain. As a group we think that this is a little plain and boring. 

I thought it would look great if there was a shadow, however as a group we decided that the light grey/white shadow makes the font look too comedic. 

Using the same shadow idea, we changed it so that there was a darker red shadow. Aiden likes this version of the font. 

As another design with the shadow idea, we changed the shadow to a dark grey. Louis likes this version. 

I am unsure as to which version I like. I think we should wait until Terry sees this (as he is absent today) and see which he prefers out of our final two. 

UPDATE: Terry came back in and decided that the one with a dark grey shadow over the red.
