Editing Changes

When adding our title sequence onto our thriller video, we were recommended some changes by our teacher Mr Sheriff. These were to look at an actual thriller opening and compare the title sequence to ours. The thriller opening that I looked at was Godzilla. Below is our first attempt at a title sequence. (Please ignore the bad quality which will be improved on our final cut) We used the same software that we edited on called Pinnacle. From this, We decided that we wanted to change some things about it. One thing that we are improving is the lack of sound stings in tense moments. For example, when she looks in the mirror, when they sit up, ect. In our thriller, we have some natural sound effects such as the door shutting, footsteps which we included because they were effective and fitted well. Although we have some sound effects, we believed that more were needed to make Subterranean look and sound as effective as possible. Something else that we decided to change was the font used. This is because by looking at our peers video, Extinct, we released that the neat font they used in theirs looked far more effective and professional than ours. Although our font used fits with the themes, we believe that it looks amateur and to make it look as realistic as possible. Another change that we are going to make is having our film name, Subterranean, appear on a black screen rather than over the footage. This is because it will draw the viewer's eyes to it more and make it stand out more than the other titles. This is important because it is our films name so needs to be able to be seen by the viewer.From looking at the Godzilla title sequence, I wrote down what titles came up and then done the same with our second rough cut and compared them. Above is the comparison and what we are going to change our titles to.
