Our Opening

This is our opening sequence as a group we were really happy with how it turned out but we felt something was missing, due to audience feedback we decided the music still wasn't right, our teacher Leanne Whittaker said the bass guitar in the song was too harsh against the accoustic and it made the piece seem sinister insted of happy. So on 25/02/10 we were back in the editing sweet and used just the guitar riff but this time it was a electric guitar insted of an accoustic and we felt this gave off the right message to the audience.

Research and Planning-Pictures Of Our Piece






These screencaps were taken from our opening sequence, we decided to make the colours of the title gender specific because it worked in context with the codes and conventions of "Rom-coms", this can be seen in films like "Its A Boy Girl Thing".

Research and Planning- The Title Font


When it came to picking the font for the title of our film we were really careful because we didn't want to font to go against the genre of the film, as a group we decided we wanted a font that was quite fun and went with the "teen" element of our film. We went on the website Dafont and we looked at a verity of different fonts. The font we decided to use was called "Mental freak" (the circled font). We think this was the best choice of font for our opening.

Research and Planning- The Song For Our Titles Take 2

When we originally planned our opening sequence we wanted to remix the song She's Got You High By Mumm-Ra however when we remixed it we felt it didn't really go with the edited footage. We then came up with the idea of recording the song with just the guitar riff and perhaps the underlying bass riff and when the recorded guitar was played with the edited footage it fitted really well and everyone within the group felt very excited.

Research and Planning-Font for the titles




For the titles of the film we wanted to something playful and fun to look at. With the help of the website Dafont we saw a font called "Green Pilloww" and immediately we wanted to use this font and we think it works well in context with the genre of the film.
