Final Video
We got feedback from our class where we watched each others thriller projects. We got told that the thriller opening was effective in black and white. Also the fact that to begin with you didnt see the faces of the killer or the vicitm was effective and made the opening more mysterious and adds suspence for the audience.
We chose to call it Marionette which follows in with the story of the killer wanting to hang the girl like a marionette. We used the writing text called Porcelain to use for the title which appears at the end of the thriller sequence. I chose to fade it in and out slowly for a dramatice creepy effect and also it gives the audience time to read it properly and remember the name of the thriller.
We finished our music for our thriller title sequence. We first went through a few sounds which we thought will match our sound of the idea/atmosphere we wanted to create. We added quite a few sounds such a emotional piano, percusiion and strings. We added a few sounds in different sequences to see how it all sounded. We edited it until we were happy with our final sound. When we have filmed what we have needed we will maybe edit the music again until it fits in with the film and everything is in time with one another. We asked someone who wasnt in our group to see what ideas they thought coulod help us and whether or not they thought it was an effective sound or not. We got mostly positive feedback and we are happy with our final piece of music.
After researching text from defont.com we chose some font that we thought would be useful and effective with our thriller. We wrote what we wanted in our credits such as who produced the musicedited the sequence etc. We wrote the names of the cast in Porcelain which is the writing we chose from the previous website. We wrote what they had done in the thriller sequence such as the music or filming in smaller arial text. We saved it in Photoshop and once we film our sequence we plan to add the text on top of the film once edited. Depending on the colour and darkness on the screen we will then chose what colour the text to be, however we are expecting it to be quite a dark thriller sequence so the writing will most likely be white.
The music we will be creating for our project will hopefully mimic the sort of tune you would hear in a musical jewelry box.
For our location our initial idea is to film the majority, if not entirety, in a forest area of some sort.
A film called "kinetic"
I had some ideas from a music video I'd watched recently:
