My opening credits with jelly babies

Also in this lesson we made our opening credits using jelly babies.







Opening film Credits

In today's lesson we spent most of our time analysing open film credits. What we all noticed is that the name of the film never came first as we call assumed the producers name would always come first, how every we watched to different opening sequences from two differerent periods of time. "Se7en" which which was filmed more recent than the other film "Vertigo" which was filmed in the 50's, however the same structure still applied so it was almost tradition to have the title later on in the sequence. One thing we were able to identify is that with the older films the opening credits took a lot longer than the moden film but the begining reflected what to expect in the film.

Two More Ways I Would Use To Market My Film

If I had more money to market my film, I believe that I would invest in creating merchandise that would b appealing to our target audience that I have posted previously...

My first experience of editing my horror movie

In today's lesson my partner and I had been editing the footage that we had filmed over the weekend.

The editing obviously wasn't the main challenge as we had done quite a lot of practice over the last couple months, it was the filming itself. However me and my partner did foresee a problem with lighting and we did try and find a way around it but this did not work exactly how we planned. We wanted to use the early winter darkness to our advantage to make the audience get the feeling that everyone was unsafe for they wouldn't be able to see what was coming but it got dark quicker than we thought, therefore there was a lot of editing that would we needed.

And for that reason there was a lot of editing involved not only with what was visual but with audio also as we did all our filming outdoors that day. We both did end up cutting out a lot of footage as some sounds and footage was irrelevant and/or unusable. We were able to use different techniques with the sound and hopefully we will be able to improve our skills to make the film opening look as good as possible.
