Planning Blog: Title Design

 




The title of my film will be : Burnt Out. 

I will use the font 

TT Ramillas

It is a contemporary font and it is simple yet bold. I’m using this font to illustrate the serious nature of my short film.  It will be in a purple color because that is the color that often is used to represent mental health.

Comparing Le Jetee, the short, and 12 Monkeys, the full-length movie

  Part 1: Insights from the Video on 12 Monkeys and La Jetée Key Takeaways: The video compares Chris Marker’s La Jetée (1962) and Terry Gilliam’s 12 Monkeys (1995), focusing on their storytelling methods and themes. Here are some main points: • Storytelling Methods: La Jetée uses a series of still photos to tell its story, giving it a unique and memorable feel. On the other hand, 12 Monkeys uses regular movie techniques, which allows for more action and character development. • Themes: Both films explore time travel, memory, and human experiences. They look at how time can be a repeating cycle and how people deal with their past and future, raising questions about fate and free will. • Visual Style: La Jetée has black-and-white images that create a stark and thought-provoking atmosphere. 12 Monkeys presents a gritty, dystopian world, adding depth to its story.

Final Task: Title Design

Image
  For the fonts we decided that we woul d use Roxborough Calligraphic Serif with a vibrant red color. The background would be black to show the contrast between the bright red and it attracts attention. Red is demanding and eye-catching. When it is displayed against a black screen attention will be called to the title, whic h will also bring up questions about the sequence. We decided that our title will be “The shifter” to represent the shift in beh avior that will be displayed in our opening sequence.     The title will be displayed in big font and the rest of the title including the directors' names, the actors' names, the editors' names, and the names of the music artists will be displayed in smaller font. The people's name will be displayed in plain white in the Times New Roman font. The titles will be displayed on the screens by fading in and fading out. Each title will be on the screen for 3-6 seconds and then it will fade to the next title. It i...
