Post Production: Editing/Titles


During the editing process, we had to create titles which would play over the opening. We had to consider the tone and themes of the opening and be aware that the titles had to reflect that feel. The font, colours and background of the screen had to be altered to reflect it - it was imperative to incorporate codes and conventions in the titles. We decided to have a black background with white font. However, the white font has inflections of red behind it which can symbolise danger and blood. 


The letters in "Cling Films" are spaced out evenly, with it filling most of the screen whilst "A" and "production" are smaller and the letters are not spaced apart, which means the focus mainly falls on the name of our production company.



Our first title is a "starring" title, with the first actor's name appearing is "Jennifer Adler". As it is a starring title, the name appears for slightly longer on screen than the other names of the actors. In addition, the fact that the name appears solely on its own suggests that it is a starring role.


Other actors names featured include "Leo Winslet" and "David Matthews". Two names appearing at once indicate that these actors don't have starring roles in the production, and they are more lily supporting roles. They also don't appear on screen for as long.
