Planning for Final Task: Title Design

 My film's opening credits will appear very small and unable to read at first. Along with the eerie background music, I want to make the viewers feel uneasy with the opening credits as well. This is why I am going to make the words be zoomed in quickly and appear in a way that they can be easily read. They will be in the center of the screen, and some parts of the opening sequence will include two titles at the same time. The words will be white and red, displayed on a black background. This is because the colors of the mask are black, red and white.

The working title is "Chasing Me" that will look something like this: 

The title is bold and in all caps, with two different fonts and colors. Unlike the way the other credits will appear, the title will just pop up on the screen normally. However, there will be a moment of suspense before it does appear. The title will disappear after around 5 seconds and all other titles will disappear after 2 to 3 seconds.

The titles will be in white font, and the names of the participants will be in red. Here is an example:
There will be more space between the title and the participants in the actual credits. The title will be a larger font size than the names of the participants because of the way I want the words to align. The titles will be about 4 font sizes bigger than the participants' names (which is displayed in this picture).
As previously stated, the words will appear very small, so the viewers would have to squint to attempt to make them out. The words will then increase in size with the blink of an eye. They will then fade off the screen. I will merge the titles "Editing" and "Directing" together. Since they will both be done by me, I will include them together so it looks like "Directing & Editing by" to make things easier.

My Music Video

Image
  Filming this music video was somewhat complicated. Procrastination and my being shy played a big part in the delay of filming. From the beginning of the process of making this music video, I already had a plan. The song "Halfway There" came to me because it was stuck in my head. I thought it would be the perfect song to use due to its positive message, and the fact that it is school appropriate as well. In my music video, I did my best to give off an optimistic vibe in the video, but it was somewhat difficult. When it came down to filming the video, my cousin, my sister, and I worked as a team to obtain quality footage for the music video. In some parts of the video, the ecstasy was forced because we are not overly happy people. On the other hand, we did have some genuine moments of fun for other parts of the music video. The quality, the outfits how I planned them, the interaction, the acting, and the editing of the video are the things I am most proud of. The aspect I am ...

Genre Research: Horror

 This PowerPoint is a project I was instructed to do that is based on the horror genre. I worked on this PowerPoint in the beginning of the year with another student. We were asked to pick a genre from a list of other genres, and research it. Our research consisted of common lighting, camera angles, movements, Mise-En-Scene, elements of horror, example films, common sounds and what we like and dislike about the genre. I have noticed that this PowerPoint has been altered because the slide where I explained my dislikes about the genre is missing. Since this assignment didn't involve meeting in person, it was quite simple to complete. My partner and I split the amount of slides somewhat evenly, which means we each had a responsibility to finish our part of the project. I did the slides that involved videos, the Mise-En-Scene, the common angles and my dislikes about the genre. My partner did the common lighting, elements, film examples, and the likes about the genre. I knew how to add ...

Planning Storyboard for my Music Video

Image
 This storyboard represents how I would like the process of filming the music video for the song Halfway There. I will try to meet my own expectations and hope everyone follows through with my ideas. The first box is what I need to do in order to begin the filming process, which is to go to North Carolina to be with my family. The second one is how I will approach the idea of including my cousin and family in the video. I will then make sure they are ok with being on camera, and part of the music video. This is a very important part of the project because this could make or break it. The third one represents us planning which days to record the clips for the music video. The fourth one represents another important part of the filming process, the weather. The weather has to be what we desire it to be to even record. The plan is for it to be sunny outside to symbolize happiness. The fifth one represents us picking basic outfits to wear for the music video and props that people use e...
