Title Research: Art of the Title and Watch the Titles Websites

Image
     I started my research with brief and general searches to hopefully lead me down a more informative path, to hopefully "strike gold," as they say. I started by searching how to research title sequences and came across a multitude of websites, though none seemed like they had enough information to support the amount of research needed to be done. This was until I came across two websites called Art of the Title and Watch the Titles. We are researching these websites because they provide easy access to hundreds of title sequences where we can note and research the elements of font, contrast, size, how the words are moved and where they are placed, and the duration for which they are shown.

Re-Shooting and Re-Editing: Script Fixes and Filter Fun

Today was our final time meeting up to film! Today, we are fixing our mistakes and creating a more coherent and sound production.       First, we tackled the comment on the busyness of the park scene. I wasn’t familiar with Marissa and Mackena’s neighborhood, as the start of this whole project was my first time being there. Marissa offered a good idea of going to their public community pool just down the street, and since it was cold outside, no one would be there to see Mackena and Riley in their toddler costumes again.        For the pool scene, this was our easiest scene to film yet. We had them sit across the pool on the chairs to make it seem like the viewer was watching them from afar. At first Marissa had them sit on the direct opposite side of the pool, but as I started to film, I saw they were a bit further from the camera than I wanted. Almost to the point where it was difficult to see the two on their chairs. To fix this, I had t...
