Exporting the project

After we had finished the film it took a long time to export partly because of the MAC's being slow and also partly because of the opening credits

We had to keep rendering it before as well as it was starting to get very slow, and jumpy, while editing the credits this also took alot of time!

Once we finished we then had to export it which too ages and it even failed once and we had to start again, which took alot of time up but at least it was finished!!

yay!

The opening credits

We went with simple credits them went with our colour scheme for the main title. We added the credits on premiere pro using their program. This was much more time effective then using after effects, and in the end we think it worked out much better as using flashy animations and font types wouldn't have been fit in our genre, we learnt this from out research.

Title sequences from other films in our genre also has simple colour schemes and font so we thought it was best fit for our film too

This is the font and style we went for, the red sort of symbolizes a blood colour, showing the darkness of our film and trying to fit it mostly on a black background adds to the effect of it being dark genre.

Opening credits problem

Years before ours mostly used after effects program for their opening credits, unfortunately dues to the time we had at the end and other problems, when it came to the opening credits we had no idea how too use after effects, we tried to learn how to do it using teaching help and you tube videos in a quick lesson, but given it being a confusing program and the time we had it was much better for us to used premiere pro and infarct would work better as it will be effective simple titles, going along with our title theme, and the colour scheme will fit with our main title colour.

Opening credits - Progress

Our original plan with the credits was to export our film without the credits when we had finished it and then work on the PC's with premiere pro to add the credits in. That way we could use the faster computers and not have to worry about rendering too often and it was more reliable. But unfortunately we had exported our film in the wrong format, meaning that there was a large boarder around it and the quality was bad.

But with the time it took to export and the time it took to realize afterwards it was very frustrating and we lost some more time we could have used editing

Exporting with the wider view and better quality, took a lot longer to export
