Opening Credits

Good afternoon everyone!

Today, I will be discussing our  opening credits scene. This part is imperative to our production because it reveals the title of the film and who created and acted for the film. 

We have not come up with a name for our production yet, but we are  planning on displaying the title in an eerie and mysterious font. We chose this idea because it matches with our genre, and it would only make sense if the title font matched with what the production is about.

Coincidentally, this font name is called “Something Strange”, which fits well with the mysterious vibe of our plot line. 

And now for the credits sequence. Before the protagonist of our story wakes up, we’re planning on having a long take of items surrounding our protagonist that have our names on them to describe what roles we played in the production and who we act as. The protagonist will be passed out throughout the duration of the opening sequence, introducing the character and starting off the film with a mysterious beginning. In addition, we will have a spooky non diagetic sound that is playing during the duration of the opening credits to add continuity to our production. 

Like Napoleon Dynamite (2004), our opening sequence will have the credits on different items, but it is different in a way because the items in our sequence will be shown in a long take of a pan around the abandoned garage. 

Hasta la vista,

Ben
