skills audit: creation of titles
for our films we used live type pro to present to the audience the title of our film, the cast, director, producer etc... the way the titles are shown on screen is crucial in the build up of the suspense, the timing needs to be accurate as the titles need to be simultaneously presented with the soundtrack e.g. the titles have to come up with a loud church bell noise which would be part of the soundtrack. the titles we used were bold and white with a thick red exterior/ glow behind it, the titles had animation attached to which would make the titles flicker on screen like some alien film, these flickering titles would bring thrills to the audience as the titles are followed by a loud church bell noise, the titles would come up when in the clip the actor is doing something dramatic, i.e. single handedly jumping over a fence.
