PRODUCTION COMPANY
We used a free logo creator to come up with our design.
For our production company name Bec and i combined our last names because it sounds funny.
Out of bounds
TITLE SEQUENCE
Title sequences are very important in film as they not only credit the cast and crew, but also help set the genre and reveal to the audience the nature of the film. It also presents an opportunity to us to think of out of the box and creative ways to present the names of the cast and crew whilst still keeping with the theme.

AMERICAN HORROR STORY : MURDER HOUSE
SECONDS

The music is creepy and fits in with when the titles are shown

Cast

Name of the production.
There is no dialogue, which gives it an eerie feel
VINYL
Bold white text used on a black and white background.
We decided we wanted the text to be white and bold because the title sequences above do the same thing. The images in the backgrounds are quite dark and we also want to create this contrast between the film in the background and the text. We decided to use the font DIN alternate bold as it looked quite similar to the text used in vinyl and seconds.We also liked that it was quite simple. The order we decided on is production company name, director's names, Actor's names and finally the name of the movie.
