Production Blog : Title Design

 The opening credits of our film will appear in a digital/Italic font that appears to be "typed" into the middle of my screen. Working Title: The title of this film will likely be "Endless Dreaming"  It will be in bold face font and in caps and will likely be in red: SOMETHING ALONG THIS STYLE  Titles will all be "typed" on to the screen.

The opening sequence was not really leaning over those genres. So I re-edited it in order to match the final task. The first thing I did was to change around the texts to look more scarier. This actually worked as the text did in fact more look scary like. I also changed up the transitions I did to look more cleaner. I also changed the transitions to look more scary like as well which ended up working. Overall the product was very much better than what I edited the first time. I also felt the need to make it more easily to engage with. As I feel like I did not do that the first time. I also chose a different style of editing than I did the last time. As I felt that last editing style I did was too ...
