Animatic

For our titles we chose to use a serious serif font. The use of this font helps to set a very serious tone for the audience and lets them get a feeling of the type of tone that the film will be. Also the colour of the titles is a dark blue. The darkness of the text creates a ominous tone and the colour blue holds connotations of being sad, this coupled with the black background, which connotates death, sets a dark and mellow tone for the film. The fading in and out of the text also helps to set a very slow pace for the film, as it creates very smooth transitions between each title. For the order of our titles we used the conventional order of having the most important actor appearing first and followed by the less important members of the cast, ending with the director. 

Improvements
To improve my opening sequence I will change a few things in my animatic that didn't quite work. For example one thing that I will be doing is changing the pace of music that goes with the opening titles. This is due to the music not quite fitting with the pacing of the fading in and out of the titles. I also have to change the order of the distribution and production company logos at the very beginning as they are in the wrong order. Another improvement is adding some of the titles over moving image to help vary the kinds of titles in the opening sequence. Another improvement that I will be making is changing the score that goes with the dream sequence, and editing it more to make it flow. This is due to when it cuts back to the character laying in bed the sound cuts off and doesn't sound right.
