titles and credits

TITLES:

My titles will appear either right at the beginning or end of the opening, and I would like them to fit in with the time frame and style of the film. Below are example of styles and fonts that I would possibly use in the title. The title would be likely to also include an image that relates to the opening that could either be an image or a sketch.

I like this font because it really matches the style of the film and is similar to some font used for titles of other films such as "Double Indemnity". Also with an image behind the text I feel it could work very effectively.

This font was taken from www.dafont.com. I feel this font also fits the style of the film and is quite dramatic in itself. I especially like the 3D aspect of this font and the graphic style.

This font was also taken from www.dafont.com, it works well because of its simple style and boldness. However, it does seem a little too playful and childish for the style of the film.

The transition of my titles will be a simple fade in - fade out. I do not want to over complicate the title sequence and, as in all the other areas of the opening, I would like to replicate the style that would be used in the films that I have researched such as "Strangers On A Train" or "Vertigo".


CREDITS:
For the credits I will us a very similar style as the title, using similar fonts and styles. The transitions will be simple to match the style of previous films made in the late 1940s, and they will show whilst the film is playing. The font I use will be a more simplified version of the title font and to make it I will either use the options on Final Cut Pro X or for a more graphic effect I will take photos of sketches and make a stop-motion video which i can then overlay on top of the film itself.
