Feedback:

From the class screening on the most recent Edit of our Title Sequence we received feedback of changes that could be made to improve it.

One of the first things that was mentioned was the length of the sequence since it is almost three minutes long and instead should only be roughly two minutes. This means that a lot of shots will need to be cut out of the sequence.

Originally we intended to have interactive typography. However, this proved to be a lot more difficult then it seemed. Since there were only two shots in the film that included interactive text, it didn't have the effect on the audience that we had hoped and it wasn't very prominent within the scene. Therefore, to keep the typography consistent, we are going to remove these shots.

The amount of shots that involved me pulling George around by his tie was picked up upon, Moreover, it will need to be reduced to create a more realistic performance.

The scenes involving the drinks being poured need to be re-filmed so that the performance is more sexual. Therefore, the drink will be poured using only one hand. As well as this, the glasses need to be changed so that two of the same glasses are used. This is to create balance within the frame. It was suggested to use red wine. However, this would make the spiking of the drink less prominent so as a group we have decided against doing this.

Feedback

After our first screening of the Title sequence, we received feedback from our age group. we hadn't yet included sound. Therefore, it was made clear by the other groups how vital the sound was for the title sequence as a way to set the mood and tone. It was really prominent how tedious the shots became when they lacked a soundtrack to help emphasise them.

The use of the black and white effect was an aspect that worked really well and seemed to be visually pleasing as a successful element in the sequence. However, we  as a group we had decided upon isolating certain colours within the black and white shots to make them prominent because the colours such as red and purple resemble significant themes within the sequence.

The pace of the shots was picked up on as a negative. We had experimented beforehand with slowing down certain shots. However, when we viewed it on a larger scale it became more clear that some of the shots had been slowed down too much. Therefore, the pace of the sequence is something that we will need to be improve upon. Since there are many scenes that need to be included still, I think that once these are filmed added in the timeline. It will help us to judge the pace of the title sequence a lot better.
