  The opening credits of my film will appear in a cursive font that will quickly fade into different corners of the screen.      - Working title: We plan on having the title be “Here for You.”     - It will be in a cursive font and with the H and Y capitalized. It will also have a period at the end. Something like this: - Titles will all quickly fade onto the screen and will all disappear with a fade.                                               - Titles will disappear after about 3 seconds. - The titles will be in a very light pink color- almost white. However, if they blend into the background they may be changed to a different color such as black. It should look something like this:       - As the credits continue, the font color will get darker and darker until the title appears in crimson red.   ...

  Hi guys!       Now that we are on the final task, it's time to research certain things. A huge part of films, especially opening sequences, is the film's aesthetic and the feel given as you watch it. That's why picking a title design is so important. I first used the website "Art of the Title" as a research platform. Why?

This is better than simply displaying the title text on a blank screen because it can show effectively how the design works with the rest of what is happening. The second website I used to research is called "Watch the Titles". This particular website was helpful as it was similar to "Art of the Title". It was organized and included different kinds of films. Below is its setup!

This means advice should help greatly in my groups short film process as we are students who are  2. "Focus on setups and payoffs" Setups and payoffs are important in film as they help tell a story in an unexpected way. In film setoffs are considered details or elements that are introduced early on, and payoffs are the unanticipated results they later produce. The video emphasizes the important difference in action, story, and emotional setup and payoffs and their role in film. The suggestion paying off multiple forms of setu...
