Editing our opening sequence Day 10

For this lesson, we had booked a time slot with Michael, our tech guy for some help to improve our text,this was also one of things said on the feedback, for us to improve upon.

The font before was basic and boring and did not show the standard of work we are aiming to acheive, the programme we were shown and used was livetype, the reason being is that it is reasonably easy to use, there are a variety of fonts, there are a number of conventions and transitions to add and you can really play around with the text until you find something suitable, after a while we had chosen the style and made one style type for all the fonts showing consistency, it was very easy to add to final cut, just a matter of drag and drop.

Overall just by putting a bit of time into the text, it has made such a big difference, even the music fits well and so does the genre, the text is now vibrant and works really well and this shows the standard of work we are aiming to achieve,
