Post Productiont: Experimenting with Titles


I did not think about the type of title I would have for my film earlier on, but I did some testing to see how I might create one. I did think about having the name of the title simply fade in and out on the screen but I feel that I could find a way to make the appearance look more attractive.






The images below show me testing with the idea of placing the title on the map of Nigeria. The colours I used were earthy tones but I tried using the Nigerian flag as a background and to colour the map but I don't feel this works because it may not be obvious to the audience and I think it has a cheesy look to it. I know now that using the Nigeria map outline won't work as part of my title sequence.





Below is the image taken by Elliott, my cameraman for this film. I really like the picture because it looks like it is from a scene in the film so I thought why not experiment with the idea of it being a freeze frame title.
It is also has the main character and I really like the expression on her face. I used the colour red for the text so it slightly stood out from the background but this may change. I think I might end up using this idea but change the text and colour first. The rest of the images is showing the different areas I could place the text on. Above I posted a very quick video of two types of intros for the title I might use, it is very quick as I was giving myself a refresher in After Effects also. I decided to add a Yoruba soundtrack to see if it works with the title intro which I feel it does but I am going to continue looking for sounds for the film so it is definitely not final.
