Third Post

On Friday, Richard White and I set up the green screen in Rob's animation room and filmed some test footage for some various silhouette ideas against different backgrounds. I will also attempt a number of visual effects along side the silhouettes including making the silhouettes shatter and merge with smoke and/or ink blots. We got a fair amount of stills as well as shots of Richard walking or moving into different poses etc. There should be a lot to mix and match into a draft title sequence of sorts. Next post will hopefully be when they're all edited and up on YouTube. I also found an interesting website devoted to the art of the title sequence with a wealth of film and Television title sequences to look through to see what makes the best title sequences stand out from the crowd:
