Titles and Credits . .

We have started to think about the titles and credits of our film, this includes font choices, sound and maybe diologue.


As it is shown here, the font the film 'Titanic' uses is quite bold and brass, maybe linking to use of the ship. Personally I do not think this would work for our film as I would like something more feminime.


This font for 'P.S. I love you' is completely different to one from 'Titanic' and I prefer this one a lot more. It seems more feminime and would reflect the mood of the film through the font. The makers of 'P.S. I love you' have obviously used this font as it is about letter and this looks hand written linking to the theme of the film. The use of the colour red also gives the connotation of love and romance so this is something we should consider.


Contrasting to the Romantic genre I had been looking at is the font used by the 'Saw' films, the use of the dirty brown colour like that of dry blood show's what to expect in the film. Showing that the font used can reflect the genre of the film.

Our Fonts.
I have wrote the name of our film 'The Dearly Departed' in many different fonts - so have the other members of my group we will show eachother the fonts we have chosen and then compare them to see which ones we prefer.
These are the fonts I've provided:-

I will send another post showing which font we chose.

Not yet filmed . .

We are yet to have made any progress in our filming process due to bad weather conditions on the 18th December 2009, as it was icy outside we thought that it wouldn't be practical or safe to film our cast running around in this scene.

We did not film during the christmas holidays because we did not have the correct equiptment (a tripod) and we didn't want our filming to look un-professional, as it would of been harder t o film and wouldn't have gave our Opening a sufficient look.

The letter we had produced for the scheduled day of filming will be reproduced for the next set days of filming we will plan this will happen when we know when our male leading role is free.
