Goodbye.

Overall, I had a great journey from the first prelim to the title sequence. Despite issues and events, I was still able to pull through and create my final product. I have developed skills which will help me in the future e.g planning, filming, editing, and organisation. Also, I understand how the media industry works through this process.

3. Choice of Titles, font , colour, position etc

My shots titles were one a black screen. This was to create suspense in the sequence.


I used a typewriter font to give a feel that a statement was being written on a typewriter. This gives the viewer a feeling that something is going to happen and helps to add to the suspense.


The colour tone that I used was a green/red tint which is often used for most horror movies.

2. Sounds for 'Behind You'

The suspenseful background music for my title sequence was found searching for royalty free music. This is music that doesn't have copyright protection.

I google searched 'horror music royalty free'



I am going to use foley sounds in shots as this will help suspend disbelief.

List of foley sounds

- Footsteps
- Leaves rustling
- Winds blowing
- Bass drones
- Heavy breathing

1. Stages of editing for 'Behind You'

1. The first stage in my editing was the composition of my shots. I had to find the shots that I was using and order them the timeline of premiere.


2. Secondly, I inserted the titles between the shots. I used titles on a black screen as it helped to create suspense and unknowing of the next shot.


3. Thirdly, I went onto youtube and did a google search for 'royalty free horror suspense music'. After some time searching through copyright free music I found a suitable track to use in my title sequence. 


4. After, I started to edit the colours of my shots through the process of colour grading. I found that I was able to create a film look by making the shots slightly dark and giving them a green/red filter.

Here is a gif of the editing from premiere

Leaving my group

I left the group that I was working with, and took on independent work by myself. The title sequence came out differently from my old group, and different shots were used. The order of the shots were different to the story board.

I used the shots we had from filming. I also had a different colour scheme to my film as I decided to colour grade my title sequence.
