Creating Our Titles and Font Choices
With every trailer there is a main title informing the audience what the trailer is called, In the process of making our titles we experimented a range of different overlays and backgrounds to try and portray our demon Mr Cullen.
For our first title we used a white background with a hint of red to represents death.
|
We then decided they looked a bit plain so we added a shadow to make it look 3D.
|
After we added the shadow we thought it would look better with a 3D font.
|
We decided that these titles were a bit plain and needed a bit more texture. We also feel the colour white wouldn't represent Mr Cullen as he is all about death so we feel a darker colour would represent this better.
With the 4th title we went with a different background and added a animation of a crack.
|
In this title we added a smoke overlay to try and display how Mr Cullen is a spirit or ghost.
|
With these two titles we decided the background was a bit to much as it wash out the title. We also felt it didn't really portray the demon Mr Cullen.
We decided to go for a different background that we thought looked clearer and a would appeal to the audience a bit more. The title was also made to fold in.
|
In this version we change the title so it was small and gradually got bigger creating the effect of uncertainty.
|
After watching this title a few times we thought it was a bit plain and needed a animation or something in the background which was moving.
|
In the end we found a video on YouTube of glass smashing and made it so when the title came up the background was blurred. We thought this related more to out demon because he only appears in reflections so we chose this as our final title.
