Titles

In this lesson we started to learn about the importance of film titles because in our final production we will need to get the titles spot on.

First of all we went on the website www.artofthetitle.com to help find a opening series of titles which we could then learn about. From this website i chose the titles from James Bond Skyfall. I chose these titles because they are extremely well known and because it was such a high end blockbuster they wouldn't have made any mistakes. 

I screen shotted every title that was shown and then timed how long they appeared for, i did this to learn about the way in which certain actors want there name up for a certain period of time. The most common time was 3 seconds which then lowered to 2 seconds with the production team and makeup artists. 

From this simple action I learnt about the importance of titles and how important it is that they are all correct with no mistakes, from the Skyfall titles I found a lot of inspiration for our own titles hopefully being able to re create this professional look in our own production.
