Our Title Sequence

Okay so here's what we've been tasked to do, to create the title sequence to a film, genre and style up to us. Beyond the belief that a group of people will agree, we managed to decide what we wanted to do, after a bit of convincing and encouraging i manage to bring Kirsty and Ross around to the idea of an animated opening sequence. So upon the decision we headed over to the mac room and hit on youtube and began to search upon different styles of animation.

I had initialy come to this project with an exact idea of what type of animation i wanted to do, examplefied in this clip, but after a conversation between ourselves and with Nina we realised that this annimation wouldn't be achievable as we didnt have the right programs and it didnt prove to be cost effected either. Aswell as the fact that this would require hand drawn images, which out of the three of us, Kirsty was the onlyone with a rather decent drawing capability and wouldn't be able to produce the vast amounts of images we would nee, so out the window that went.



I had favoured the opening sequence of an animated film called 'Karas' which the exploding titles enticed me, but again we realised that this would not be achiveable, on the basis of programs and the fact that this was the first animation project any of us had taken on.



Finally a bit of time later we were show the titles to the film 'Juno' which we imediatly took a liking to, it was a mix of animation (which we wanted) and photography (a specialty of a fellow member, Ross) so we decided that this seemed acheivable to us and we took it up and worked out we would need roughly 24 frames a second to give it a sense of fluidness.
