Prelim Task (Third Lesson)

Here are a list of things we did today, and how we did them:

·         We created a title:

¾     We used Text to write the title and chose the Font, Chalkduster, which appeared to be chalk-like and thus linked to our narrative and setting.

¾     We then wrote single letters of our title Lost Boy in each text area and dragged them down into our project separately. I then shortened their duration so that each letter appeared on the screen faster. We then reversed this by copying each segment and putting it back down on the timeline but in the reverse order.

¾     Again, we fastened it up, before fading it into the opening shot of the narrative.

·         We decide to experiment and see whether we could make the title blurry, to create the effect that someone was rubbing the title off the board.

¾     We tried to speed each segment up and add fades in between them, but that had no effect on them, apart from making the title appear and disappear very fast.
