Title Sequence

The video below is a remake of the film 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban's' credits, a similar style in which our title sequence will be constructed.


As a group we sat down and watched back our title sequence of the piece we had created last year and mutually agreed that we were unsuccessful in constructing it. This gave us the drive to compose a title sequence that was highly relevant to our piece and giving an impression of professionalism.



The title sequence that we came up with was inspired by the one used in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. The title Sequence consists of multiple layers of old paper in a stack, being typed onto magically with the sound a typewriter's typing and the ripping of pages injected into the piece to give it that sense of realism.

We tried to foley the sounds of pages ripping and the sound of typing but we were unsuccessful in doing so and did not understand the dificulty in trying to recreate sounds outside of a scene. After realising the difficulties we obtained a cd-rom containing different foley sounds that could be editied to fit in with the title sequence accurately. We managed to cut the sounds down to the milisecond making them tie in with the onscreen action perfectly.
