Assignment 40: Font and Title

planning

The font we will use

• At a time, we decided as a group that we will use the “Informal” Typestyle in bold writing.

• As time went on and we experimented more with fonts, we noticed the font “Trajan Pro” was more suitable for the OTS as it looked serious and it stands out from the background on its own. When mixed with white, the text should stand out and be appropriate to the OTS.

The colour and text we will use

• The colour we will use in the OTS the colour white. We will use this when necessary to make it stand out against the OTS of the black screen or background to grab the attention of the audience.

The size of the text in our OTS will be medium sized or small sized and will be spaced out so it doesn’t get in the way of the character or anything important that may be happening in the OTS. We may consider medium sized since it seems like the appropriate size for text in an intro.

Animation

• The animation we will use in our OTS to show off our editing skills and to engage our audience in our OTS will the ‘fade in, fade out’ transition as it’s more dramatic and it relates to our OTS because the hallucination keeps appearing and disappearing.

Text

• The text will start before the first shot is shown (production and distribution company credits) then will continue during the OTS. 

• We want to accomplish fitting our text into our OTS, having it stand out from the OTS, placing it using the rule of thirds and have our audience focussing on it without it collaborating or mixing with the OTS and then confusing the audience.
