This is the order of credits that Tyrell has done for editing he posted and i thought why not follow suit. This is the order that our subtitles will come up during the title sequence.

2. " A Film Directed by Ridley Scott "

3. " Tom Hardy "

4. " Gemma Arterton "

7. " Produced by Sam Raimi "

8. " Edited by Tyrell Bibbiani "

Shooting Locations


We now started talking about our Evalution so Tyrell has also brought up our Shooting locations along with Danny of what we have done so far.


"For our title sequence, we as a group have decided long and hard in terms of the variety of different locations in which we are going to shoot our title sequence. Initially, we want to shoot at London's Shard building in order to have an establishing shot for where our Government meeting will be taking place. This proved to be highly effective for out title sequence because it is essentially a very busy place, involving lots of busy people trying to get to their destinations.

For our Illuminati sequence/Evangelist sequence, we decided that we want to shoot these scenes within our school's drama room. This proved to be a very good setting and location for these scenes as the room has many features in terms of lighting that we could mess around with and alter to our likings. We used low-key lighting for the Illuminati scene and we then contrasted using high-key lighting for the Evangelist scene. The drama room essentially provided an essence of eeriness and darkness, which is the route we were looking for for our title sequence.

For the actual government scene, we used our school's main library named the 'iBrary'. This proved to be effective as it had a wide and long table for all of our government/actors to sit on. We also had a projector which displayed the map behind the main government leader.

Finally, for our Scavengers and Rebels scene, we went to Fanny On The Hill park, creating a wooden stick hut and involving our actors climbing upon trees. We then went around the corner to shoot our Rebels scene, which featured a graffiti wall and had a gritty essence around the location, which me and Danny thought was perfect for the theme we were going for for this scene." -Tyrell

Title sequence Fonts

For our font choices for out title sequence, Tyrell has done alot of investigating into which fonts in particular best suits the dystopian theme of our genre for the titles.So this is his findings. "After spending multiple and countless times searching through the website 'Dafont.com', I came across a font in particular that I felt really stood out and fitted very well for the font on our government's map. I used the font style of 'Orion' to achieve this as I felt as though it was bold and eye-catching, which is essentially what I felt was needed." -Tyrell  *News Reporter Jacob voice* And that was Tyrell from the Mac Room.






Tyrell then found another font to use

"For the titles and names that appears during the title sequence, we again investigated and looked into different fonts within 'Dafont'. We finally came across a font in particular in which we again felt fitted the theme of our title sequence, with this font being the 'Dark Underground' font. We chose this font as we felt it appeared to look very gritty yet bold and again, eye-catching. " - Tyrell





More potential filming

16/02/2016

Danny, Tyrell and I traveled into London in order to capture the two establishing shots that we needed for our title sequence which were the Shard and a church. We equipped ourselves with a tri-pod and two cameras that we borrowed from the school. At the Shard, we were able to film using both the cameras on the tri-pod and, the camera separately to give a hand-held effect. We panned left and right to try and get the full space of the Shard and, we titled the cameras going from top to bottom and from bottom to top. As we traveled deeper into London, we also decided it was necessary to record the outside of a church since it happened to be at a good vantage point, again using the tri-pod and camera together and then the camera separately. These two establishing scenes that we shot were for our government scene and for out evangelist scene in our title sequence. It was a day well spent



Confirmation on The Soundtrack

For the soundtrack for our title sequence, we decided to go on to the un-copyrighted website 'audio'. I managed to find the soundtrack that we wanted from this website and use it as the soundtrack for out title sequence. Personally, I chose this soundtrack because it is a soundtrack that builds, grows and develops as it progressed which went with our title sequence. The soundtrack at the beginning of title sequence begins very dramatically but slowly, but as the sequence progresses further, it becomes more intense and dramatic. Whilst editing, Tyrell purposely ensured that when each cast members names appeared on screen, it fitted well every time the song peaked at particular points.


Storyboards

We have storyboarded our ideas for our title sequence by hand-drawing each different scenes. We have demonstrated roughly our ideas on the basis of what we kind of want each scene to look like. Although this isn't necessarily the final copy/version of the way our title sequence looks, it is a rough idea as to how we want the finished version of our title sequence to look like.  Amazing drawings down by Tyrell and Danny with my input :D
