Our title sequence

For our video we are going to create a 20-30 second title sequence which will hopefully portray the espionage feel while also fitting into the scenes we will film around this title sequence. For our title sequence we are going to film paint being splashed into a tank of water and then slowing this footage down to get a very nice bubbling paint effect. We will use then overlay the credits of people working on the film and also what it is called 'The Decoy'. We will also then put in the music that we finally choose that will fit the video the best.

Continuity

This is the final edit of the continuity task video. This one is different to the previous one due to camera work being much better and we achieved this by changing the department we filmed in the first time, we done this due to the lighting being so much better. 

typography - the decoy


We have decided to call our short film 'The Decoy' so I done some research to see what types of fonts will look good for it.

Production Name Ideas

Music for the video

For our video we are going to have a full title sequence and so we need some music to over the top of this title sequence to get excitement building. It also needs to be music that relates to the espionage style of titles sequences like James Bond styled music. It will need to convey that what your about to watch is an espionage thriller.

Some examples that I think we could use are:

and many more

We got inspiration to do this idea from various examples on the internet and I thought that this really stood out. Skip to 2:44 for the best part.

Obviously we wont be able to shoot ins such a high fps but we would be able to create something like this for our title sequence. 

I would also like to add that a similar thing was done in Skyfall
