Skills Audit: Livetype



In todays lesson we got showed how to use the Live type Programme. This programme is to know how to do title sequences for our future thriller film.There were many different fonts and effects that we could choose from.


The image above shows what i did in lesson. I Decided to use a basic font. Then filled the word 'snap' in black and made it slightly blured. In the blackground you can see slight black lines they spin once i click play.

The image below however shows the different layers that i used. Every effect, word or font i use would goes onto this timeline. However you can also edit the effects or time there you can make it longer, faster or even shorted.


The next image is showing what one of the boxes on livetype looked like. This comes up to show all the different fonts, effects and backgrounds you could use however there all in different tabs. You can reduce the size of the text, the spacing inbetween and also jumple the letters up. The red line i have put around one the images is showing where i could write my text that would appear on my main image.


Finally the last image below shows the Importunacy of the green lines on the main screen where you put your text. If you go out the first green line on some cases some of the text will not show up and the title sequence will not work. some parts may be missing so it is imporant to keep the text and effects with the first green line.
