Today we looked at some more title sequences and examined how they were made.
The first one we recreated was from the film “The Raspberry Reich”

We recreated this by making a composition with 2 frames. One with the name Ahmed in red writing and the other being a solid red screen. We precomposed this then tiem remapped it and stretched it out over 20 secs. We then applies a wiggle to it to randomise the frames.
The next title sequence we looked at was from the film “hard candy”. We took one part of it and tried to recreate it.
We did this by creating a solid with a stroke that drew from the top to the bottom of the screen to create a line from top to bottom. We then duplicated the solid and masked either side of the line. Once we had done this, we could animate the solids to make it look like they were moving apart. We then duplicated the composition and rotated it 90 degrees. This created another spliting line behind the original one. We then changed the timings of each compostion to fit with each others movements. We then added a picture of lord of the rings behind it to make it look like the picture was being revealed.
We then animated some simple text to show the titles.
We then added some more solids to the top and the right hand side of the titles. We masked these using “image mattes” a well as standard masks. We animated them to appear from behind the lines we had created.
We then pre-composed this composition and added time remapping to it. We copied frame 00:00:01 from the beginning of the compostion and pasted it at the end to make the project disappear the same way it had appeared.
