Titles for our production

Today we decided to make our titles for our production. Before we even began we decided to watch a teenage horror film to see what titles usually go at the beginning of one. We decided to watch 'I still know what you did last summer'. We liked how in the film the first titles which appeared were simple white font on a simple black background. We decided to incorporate this idea into our production. So now our production begins with the production company and the distribution company names wrote in a simple white font on a simple black background. We made the titles on Livetype as this is the most effective way of making good titles.
We then made the name of the film titles. We chose the font 'cracked' as we thought this would portray the cracks in the murderer's character and would show her instability. We chose a smoky background as we though this would give a mysterious eerie feel to our production. We then chose to make the letter 'L' in religious, red as we thought this would bring forward the sense of danger and blood. We then added a sideways 'l' to come in at the end of the title as then it looks like a religious cross which is sticking to the religious theme of our production. This title comes in after our production and distribution company titles.
We then added various other titles throughout our production such as the executive producer and names of the actors. We stuck to the cracked font and smoky background in all of them. We didn't put any capital letters in the names of the people as we thought this would make it look young which would then appeal to a teenage audience.
