ž The way that our film opening followed the convections was very stylised and unique as our credits were running on screen at the same time there was action going on for example the audience will find out what the hit man is up to and who is his next target, at the same time ironically the credits are all there on screen while this is happening, you can see the name of the casts, production companies and let’s not forget the title.
“Lucid” title convections summarised
ž Well there are many elements that a title sequence employs for example the fonts that are used such as the size and style; this is when the color of the fonts gets involved. If it is a horror movie we expect in most cases a use of bold and red writing with a font that look dripping emphasizing blood. Some fonts could be large, some could be small. In the film lucid our font size was quiet big and at the same time bold and black emphasizing suspense. We didn't want to use bright colors as it will take away the meaning of our thriller movie. However this could be slightly contradicting the movie itself as we expect as the audience a film were a man is covered in blood, the title should be in red and dripping emphasizing the movie “lucid” especially when there are deaths in the movie
For example the text below illustrates writing in red emphasising blood, already without even looking at the title; we can tell that there is going to be deaths in it due to the fact that it is in red writing. The title “killer “seems very deceptive due to the way the font looks and colour employed.
