Title: Extras

After creating the title, we needed to add 'extras' to make it more interesting.
We added a black screen at the beginning of the title. We wanted this to create a dramatic effect at the end of the trailer before the title appeared.

Then after the title appeared, we inserted a second black screen to create more tension for the viewer and we also wanted them to wonder what was going to appear on the screen next.

After the second black screen appeared, we had a 'scary' face appearing on the screen. We wanted it to just seem to appear out of the darkness and be quite plain but creepy. 

Above is the picture we chose to come after our title. We edited it using Photoshop, decreasing the saturation slightly and also the contrast to seem like it was appearing out of the darkness. We like the way the hands are a big part of the photo, and gives the effect that the person is almost being 'taken'. We also like how the eyes are blacked out with blood and other effects around them to make it look more thrilling and also gives the effect that there is nothing inside the body but darkness. 

After inserting the photo, we added an effect called 'simple' onto it. This slightly disfigured the photo and also made it slightly blur/colour around the edges. We liked this because it made the photo look more disturbing and also unclear which we thought would frighten the audience and make them wonder about the movie. 

Finally, we added an effect called 'static' at the end. We thought this looked like a TV had broken or something similar to this,  and so wanted to give the feeling that the photo that had appeared beforehand had somehow 'broken the screen' that the audience are watching the trailer on. We also know that a lot of trailers have used some sort of effect similar to this and so we thought it was a good idea and looked really effective and really related to our chosen genre for our trailer. 

Music

Finally, we added music onto our title. We added this at the end so we knew what part of our chosen music would fit best with our title and also the extras that came after it. We wanted the music to be quite calm at first and then, when the scary face appeared, become increasingly tense with some sort of loud, sudden sound appearing. We managed to do this and we think it sounds and looks really effective and scary and fits well with our title and relates well to our chosen genre.
