Practice Intertitles



These are the practice inter titles for my film. These inter titles include the opening that I am going to use in my actual film. This is the production companies name and logo. As well as this, I have used a font that i might possibly use in my opening two minutes and some of the possible types of texts/screen positioning. The order I have put these inter titles in is the same or similar to the order they will be in in the actual opening two minutes of my film. The order is the production company logo, the name of the film may go next or I might put it at the end of my opening two minutes, the name of the actors will come next. I will follow this when editing my final film.

Diary Post - 10

Today I had my friend Natalya come over to my house so I could start to film the part of the daughter in my film. It went well and I got the majority of it done. However, I am not very happy with the lighting but it may look different after I start to edit it. I needed to film her getting ready for the wedding. In order to get this across to the audience I filmed her painting her nails, doing her hair and spraying perfume. I made sure that everything in the frame was relevant filming her at a dressing table. I put props on the dressing table, such as: candles, jewellery, nail varnish and various other things.

Diary Post - 9

I have been editing the footage that I have already got for the opening two minutes of my film. I am not happy with all of the footage I have got, but I am glad I recorded a lot so I have a choice of what footage is the best and that I will use. Editing has made me realising how important it is to be consistent with certain things such as lighting. When I started to edit I decided not to use the footage I got it London as when edited together it looks a bit random and just cuts from one thing sto another not running smoothly.

Script



This is the script of my film. There is not a lot of talking but what is said will help to set the mood for the opening two minutes. The dialogue that is in my film is important and will enhance the film.

Font Research

KG Thinking Out Loud Regular

I like this font as I feel like it bring both the elements of romance and drama that I hope to portray in the opening two minutes of my film. Although this font makes some letters seem curvy giving it a fun and romantic feel, it makes some letters look stuck straight giving it the more dramatic feel.

PW2015 Medium

This font gives the feeling that it could either be fun or dramatic. Because the font appears to be a bit wobbly I think this brings it that it could express being giddy in love or having more of a dramatic meaning. The font for my film needs to express both of these things.

Orbitron Light

This font is very straight and makes me only think of the drama. I feel like this type of font is more linked with action films. I don't think this is the right font for me to use as I feel like it doesn't portray everything that I need it to. I feel like it covers the drama element to my film but not the love theme, which is more important.

KG Chelsea Market Script Regular

I like this font because looks like it has been written in calligraphy. It also looks like the type of font that is sometimes used on wedding invitations, which is relevant to the theme of my film. However, although this font does bring in the romantic feel to my film I don't think it brings in the drama side.

Gargle Regular!

I also like this font as again I think it brings both the romantic and drama side of my film out.

MindBlue Light

I think this font represents the drama side of my film as it is quite straight and stiff. However, I only think it expresses the romantic side of my film a little bit. Therefore, I don't think I will be using this font for my film as I don't think it represents everything that I need the font of my film to.

Costume

Image result for dressing gownImage result for wedding dress The leading female will need both a wedding dress and a dressing gown. I have not yet decided if she will be wearing the wedding dress in the opening two minutes of my film or weather the audience will just see her admiring the dress. However, she will be wearing a dressing gown as she gets ready with hair and make up for the wedding.

Image result for wedding hairstyles This is the type of hairstyle I wish for my leading actress to have in the opening two minutes of my film.

Image result for black suit Both of the men in my film will be wearing black suits, with a white shirt and tie. They will both be matching much like at a real wedding.

Image result for mens hairstyles This is the kind of hairstyle I want both of the male actors to have in my film.


Image result for mens smart shoes black Both of the male actors in my film will be wearing shoes like this with their suits. They will go well with their suits as well as completing the wedding look that I am going for.

Props

 I will need a hairbrush like this as a prop for when the mother and daughter are getting ready for the wedding in their room. Both the mother and daughter have a shot in which they will be doing their hair.
 I will need the lipstick, again like the hairbrush, for when the mother and daughter are getting ready for the wedding. There is a shot where the audience will be looking at the mother putting her lipstick on in the mirror that I will need it for.

 This is the phone I will use for when the husband grabs his stuff before running out of the house. This is a significant prop as the husband will also be using the phone after he has rushed out of the house in the car, before the crash happens.
 The keys, much like the phone, are a significant prop for the husband in the opening two minutes of my films as the husband will also rush and grab his keys before running out of the house.

Image result for nail varnish I will need some nail varnish for the daughter to use in the process of getting ready for the wedding.
