Final Opening Title Sequence

Final Cut Editing

Once we had finished filming all of our scenes. We began importing all of the footage on to the computer and up into final cut where we were able to add our previously made garageband music and the voiceover to the footage and also adding end credits, transitions and so on.

Props For Our Opening Title Sequence

These are pictures of the props and the development of them throughout the project. We spent time out side of our normal lessons drawing out all the props, settings and locations.

Making The Music

Last lesson we started working on the music that would accompany our animation. This music kicks in straight after we have the first shot of the hat on Monty's Bed. This music plays a key part in telling the viewer about the film and what type of genre it is. This is after the voice-over that we are going to be using. We used a selection of sythns, strings, and piano sounds to add to the mystery of the film. We then cut the music we made to fit into the animation.

Story Board

Shot 1 is a long shot to mid shot of Monty this is used for an establishing shot of monty as he is the only real main character throughout the whole of the opening title sequence. the scene is in his bathroom as this is where most daily routines begin.

Shot 2 this is a long shot to get an idea of the location, it is showing him on his walk to school the fact he is alone will show his loneliness throughout the whole of the opening sequence.

Shot 3 another mid establishing shot this time of a bully putting into practice the role of being a bully by 'wedgying' the main character Monty this is a typical action to show the unpopularity of the main character Monty.

Shot 4 this shot is a long shot used to establish the location of the cafeteria throughout the whole cafeteria everyone is playing having fun but he is yet again alone showing how he has and is still travelling the whole of his school life alone at school.

Shot 5 next is a long shot showing yet again even on the way home Monty still gets bullied we show this by having even females bullying him and abusing him. but showing how this is all part of a typical day.

Shot 6 yet again another long shot and is again being used to establish a scene and to show that Monty lives almost all of his life in consollodation and completely alone, this is all to establish the scene and character as an opening title sequence is meant to do.

Shot 7 is another long establishing shot as i said before it is to establish that even at home he is alone and that he lives a very lonely and sad life.

Shot 8 is of the hat as it has narrative significance it is shot in an extreme close up and is focused on for a while to show confusion and that the hat is of very much importance to the whole of the film.

Shot 9 is of the credits this is a vital part of the opening title sequence to let people know the title of the whole film and of the characters well in our case voice over and to just give any information of the film not able to be shown during narration.
