This is a lot of pressure for the group as we cannot agree on the right font to use. We dont have time to disagree but all group members have to be happy with the final sequence. Group members are also out for various reasons during this weeks lessons which adds more pressure to the group members that are in to finish the sequence. My concerns about the text are that we will not have all of them complete and that the font will not match the rest of the sequence. Also if group members are out then we cant all agree and make a whole group decision.<br />
<br />
Adding transitions for the text is a bit difficult as we have to try so many different transitions before we can get the right one as we want to make our sequence as realistic as possible. Our concerns are that once we have showed the teachers, if there is any errors will we have enough time to edit them to make our errors correct. I really hope they we have done a good enough job and made a interesting but different sequence. As a group we were happy with the amount of progress we had made last week but are very concerned about the work will are going to do this week as the titles are a major part of the sequence and we want them to look realistic and perfect in each shot.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-7005739388676752962012-02-02T03:12:00.000-08:002012-02-07T01:30:46.558-08:00Thursday 2nd February 2012In todays lesson we worked hard as a group to fade in and out the music in the correct places. We also got to add in our production logo as lately we have been having trouble trying to import it.We also worked with finding the correct and appropriate transitions between the shots so that the sequence moved continuously without sharp cuts. Our main focus for today was to make sure all the shots were the correct length, do as much editing as possible and make sure the music was in time with each shot otherwise it would look messy and out of place. We also changed the font for the title of the film as we did not believe it showed any significance to the title sequence and message its showing. Our aim for next lesson is to add the titles in and make a few small changes so that we are ready to show our title sequence next week.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-3328829304957606362012-02-02T03:06:00.000-08:002012-02-07T01:30:29.822-08:00Tuesday 31st January 2012Due to recent obstacles in our filming we finally managed to overcome them and finish the filming just with enough time to complete the editing. Due to the result in lack of light and dancers being ill we have had to use a different performer. This was a last resort as we hoped the original dancer would be well enough to perform in time. This brought stress and negativity to the group as we believed we would not have our sequence finished in time.<br />
<br />
<br />
Today we shot a different dancer and got the right performance that we needed. We then were able to complete our editing with the transitions in between each shot. We also tried the sequence with our music and got the shots and audio to match up correctly. We also changed part of the sequence to black and white to make the sequence show that time has passed from the first shots to the end shots. This would show significance for the meaning that we are trying to get across about how things changed through the film overtime.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-22802408534473523582012-01-26T00:24:00.000-08:002012-02-07T01:31:02.712-08:00Tuesday 24th January 2012- Thursday 26th January 2012In todays lesson we started to put our sequence together into final cut pro. We looked at different transitions inbetween the shots and worked out where the titles were able to go. We also worked around with the picture of the x ray and where it would go within the sequence. In todays lesson one member- yasmin was not in as she was ill.<br />
<br />
In thursdays lesson two members were off for different reasons so me and Hannah worked on our title sequence. The server had crashed and all our work from tuesdays lesson was wiped which meant we had to start the whole sequence again. Once we imported all the shots into final cut our main aim was to cut certain shots in the correct place and put the whole sequence together so that when the girls were back in we could do more editing as a group as all group members should have a say in how the title sequence goes. We also added in the x ray image in the correct place and tried all different tranisitions so that the x ray image was as fluid as the rest of the sequence.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-6301815197268836752012-01-24T04:03:00.000-08:002012-01-24T04:03:25.310-08:00location shots<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLZKCb4Vggk_blrTWW4zyQtfnSKk8BRycyn20cATwtvMGSz_LjrpERprSuElnL4qkyOk91yMtDS0NGQ4Ty_mITfkeB2VkmE_ElUmM-lZZzVfjtLFjvx_tHejP8jvuNEyrvBiGLPHpOibo/s1600/100_1764.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLZKCb4Vggk_blrTWW4zyQtfnSKk8BRycyn20cATwtvMGSz_LjrpERprSuElnL4qkyOk91yMtDS0NGQ4Ty_mITfkeB2VkmE_ElUmM-lZZzVfjtLFjvx_tHejP8jvuNEyrvBiGLPHpOibo/s320/100_1764.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

These are our location shots of where we filmed our dance scenes and the wheelchair scenes. The first two pictures are of location shots that we used to film the wheelchair part. The outside location is where we filmed the dance part of our sequence. We took a picture of the tv and the corridor as they were the two main features of the title sequence. The square arc is a significant place in the location as this is where the boys danced for our title sequence.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-36542478469949335252012-01-20T12:56:00.000-08:002012-02-07T01:31:22.852-08:00Friday 20th JanuaryToday we finished our shooting at my house and we were very successful. All the shots came out exactly how we imagined. All group members participated and worked well as a team. The house we used had enough space. We used a variety of different shots and used all space and props that were avaliable to us. At first we had a bit of a debate that it wouldnt work but we were suprised when we got all the filming done and it was all correct.<br />
<br />
Next week we will focus on re shooting two shots and mainly focus on the editing part of the sequence. We filmed extra so that if some footage wasnt good enough we would have a back up plan.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-34044603004163330562012-01-20T00:17:00.000-08:002012-02-07T01:31:39.486-08:00Thursday 19th JanuaryYesterday (Thursday 19th January) we filmed the first two shots of our title sequence. It didnt go aswell as we planned it to but managed to work our way round the obstacles and got there in the end. One member of the group was unable to attend filming yesterday due to her being ill. As it got dark quickly it was limiting our lighting which was an obstacle we had to work around.<br />
<br />
Due to watching the footage back we have decided to re-shoot the first two shoots as we can not establish what is going on as the lighting was worse than we thought. We are re-shooting these two shots next tuesday so we can start editing on thursday. This has become a bit of a problem as we may not finishing editing by the deadline. The group will work extra hard to make the title sequence as realistic as possible.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-4934875659530846302012-01-19T02:51:00.000-08:002012-01-19T02:51:59.163-08:00Journal week Monday 9th January- Friday 13th JanuaryThis week the group focused on finishing all the tasks for our title sequence. As a group we had to create a powerpoint on paramount; our chosen production logo for our title sequence. Hannah created a questionairre to research our target audience and to find out the type of font the audience would prefer for 'change the beat.' Hannah also uploaded the storyboards and the group decided on a possible location and shots that could be used for the sequence. This week the group had to council filming due to the fact I was off ill; however the group decided we were able to film the following week. The main problem was the main part of the shooting was being filmed at my house as i had all the correct props, setting and costumes. After the group deciding to re schedule the shooting, it was time to disscuss film and location shots to make sure there was progress shown before next Thursday and Friday.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-15557063543499128822012-01-19T02:34:00.000-08:002012-01-19T02:34:55.436-08:00Thursday 19th January 2012Today we are shooting the first two shots of our title sequence in an outside location. This will be the dancing scenes. We also will be taking shots of location to establish the whole location. Tomorrow we will be shooting the rest of the sequence at a different location (my house). This will be the part of the sequence that establishes what would happen in the film. Tomorrow's shooting is the most important as we need to make sure we get the correct shots and establish the importance of this part of the title sequence.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-54960665688656439272012-01-19T02:21:00.000-08:002012-01-19T02:21:39.115-08:00musicToday the group had a disscussion about one of the soundtracks that will be featuring in our title sequence and debated that the music and the lyrics of this soundtrack may contradict the title sequence too much. We have decided that once we have filmed and put the sequence into final cut we will try the soundtrack and if it does contradict the images too much then we will change it to a more suitable song.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-74317234745609964442012-01-19T02:16:00.000-08:002012-01-19T02:16:42.914-08:00costumes<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdUIg2wyVOb0jixfuWDJePEbigBsGn295t6LxA4CsmziewzL1NNgVj9EkpRKa30MPjJnI2k2C0SnU2-JiTxvNCs4XXWXPrvDMdVWWkBJeSZYnVMpJKtr5bpaAHsdql0jUsFi-tysfhAUwe/s1600/img004.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" border="0" closure_uid_dk6gp8="2" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699052521918911986" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdUIg2wyVOb0jixfuWDJePEbigBsGn295t6LxA4CsmziewzL1NNgVj9EkpRKa30MPjJnI2k2C0SnU2-JiTxvNCs4XXWXPrvDMdVWWkBJeSZYnVMpJKtr5bpaAHsdql0jUsFi-tysfhAUwe/s320/img004.jpg" style="display: block; height: 237px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center; width: 320px;" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgju-bewEVOafAGoYfxTv2nP8W1Hto160F-sxMilk83mx7FP1FvxQG5pvdtX3qiJ6k1h8cSCEYyF3qQeR4Ie-G5ZIEr8mJWOViuCNpBauDfjH5kqzuxsD0TDzzTE1wJAbDi8bp0XnL6X79t/s1600/img002.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" closure_uid_dk6gp8="3" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5699051991843446818" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgju-bewEVOafAGoYfxTv2nP8W1Hto160F-sxMilk83mx7FP1FvxQG5pvdtX3qiJ6k1h8cSCEYyF3qQeR4Ie-G5ZIEr8mJWOViuCNpBauDfjH5kqzuxsD0TDzzTE1wJAbDi8bp0XnL6X79t/s320/img002.jpg" style="cursor: hand; float: left; height: 238px; margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; width: 320px;" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

We also created a google calender so that we can be more organised with our filming and editing etc. Our decision was to film the dance section on Friday as the dancers/actors are avaliable to film. Also the group disscussed the music again because the original soundtrack that was chosen has copyright authorization.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-71506338746245389642012-01-17T01:28:00.000-08:002012-01-19T01:55:18.118-08:008th December part 2<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">In Shauns lesson we designed the rest of our storyboard for our title sequence 'Change the Beat'. We started to do some research into the dance group that will be involved in our title sequence. We looked into the type of routine we wanted them to do and the clothes we want them to wear. I wrote a letter to woolwich poly school to ask permission to film in their dance studio as it has correct lighting, nice surroundings and a big enough space for the group to dance.</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

We will do some audience research and see what typography is the most popular for our title sequence. The reason we have chosen tyre track typogrphy is because it connotates the 'wheelchair' in the title sequence.This will help the audience have an idea of the storyline of the disability.</span><br />

The group decided to use 'Big Boss' for the dance part in the seqence and to use 'perfection' for when Frankie is in his wheelchair. These soundtracks are appropriate for 'Change the beat' because they have the vibe and feeling to go with the events of the title sequence.<br />

On the 8th of December our group designed our storyboard for our title sequence 'Change the beat'. We decided that the main location to film would be at my house but we do have to shoot to other scenes in another location as it is more appropriate for the dancers. We are using my house to film as it has all the props we need to use e.g wheelchair, costumes, correct surroundings and enough space to shoot our scenes.<br />
The music in our sequence begins when the main character 'Frankie' turns the stereo on.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-33369973115404342092011-12-07T02:44:00.000-08:002012-01-19T02:36:44.628-08:00journal week 3This lesson we looked at the Saul Bass case study and then had to research for our own case study. We had to choose our own title sequence designer and do a case study presentation on them. This lesson helped us construct ideas for our title sequence. While doing a case study om our chosen designer I was able to explore various title sequences. This helped me to think about the typography and visual images for our title sequence.<br />
<br />
We analyzed Dawn of the Dead which made me think and decide how important the title sequence is before the film as it gives you an idea of the storyline and suggests the genre of the film. Also it shows us how to analyze the enigma in the title sequences.<br />
<br />
The Saul Bass case study helped me to understand where the designs of title sequences came from and how Saul Bass became a title sequence designer. I really liked watching the title sequences that Saul Bass designed because they showed the story line and the genre of the film, but it didnt give everything away. I think Saul Bass is a very good title designer and has inspired my choice for my title sequence.beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-13799325516490737072011-12-06T05:23:00.000-08:002012-01-19T02:36:25.370-08:00journal week 1 and 2This week we learnt about all the different aspects of title sequences. Also when looking at title sequences you have to analyze the typography and how it is important within the title sequence, also the visual images and what they show, what enigma does the title sequence create, also what it gives away and finally the music and does it contrast with the images.<br />
We looked at various title sequences such as:<br />
<br />
<ul><li>catch me if you can</li>
<li>seven</li>
<li>lord of war</li>
<li>zombieland</li>
</ul><div>As homework and extra research and looked up more title sequences and analyzed them;</div><div><ul><li>sweeny todd</li>
<li>step up</li>
<li>stomp the yard</li>
<li>honey i shrunk the kids </li>
<li>the dreamers</li>
<li>killing of the mockingbird</li>
</ul><div>All of these title sequences are all very different but all of them give away the genre through looking at the typography and the visual images. I found it difficult to relate the typography and visual images together but really enjoyed analyzing the title sequences as i have never noticed every aspect of a title sequence.</div></div>beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15496398118999873667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4459336141990561303.post-12241853537755617212011-12-06T05:09:00.000-08:002011-12-06T05:09:06.849-08:00analysing Title sequences- Lord of war<ul><li>The music in this title sequence is happy and contrasts with the pictures.</li>
<li>I find this title sequence interesting because its from the point of the view of the bullet.</li>
<li>It looks like the title sequence is in 3D.</li>
<li>The ending of this title sequence is sad and very powerful. It also seems very sudden and happens quickly.</li>
<li>The bullet seems to be traveling around the world before it reaches its destination.</li>
<li>This title sequence shows the journey of the bullet and its not how you would expect it to be.</li>
<li>The whole concept of the title sequence comes across as shocking.</li>

Stomp the yard comes out of the screen with a black background so it stands out more. The visuals in this opening sequence are exciting and suggests the narrative of the film. It doesn't give away everything which means it creates enigma for the audience. You could ask the questions:<br />
<br />
<ul><li>Why are they dancing? </li>
<li>How do they feel when they dance?</li>
<li>Where are they dancing?</li>
</ul><div>The type of dancing in this film could suggest the genre of the film gangs/violence and street dancing. The type of dancing could reflect the personality of the main character. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #323232; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, FreeSerif, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22px;">This could relate to our title sequence for 'Change The Beat' because it shows the competitive side of our character. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #323232; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, FreeSerif, serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22px;">Our title sequence also starts of with a competition taking place ending with a tragedy which effects the main characters life one way or another.</span></div><br />
