Intertitles Order

I have been looking into the order of intertitles for films and I tried to use this for my intertitles video task, so that we can replicate a opening two minutes of a film accurately. I searched what the order is and I also looked at some example G321 Media coursework from other years and saw how they used intertitles in their work. This could help us when we are editing our film so we can be as close to a real film opening as possible.

I found this video about the sample order of opening credits in a film and I will use this whilst editing to get the order correct.

Script

We have decided that we aren't going to have any dialogue in our opening 2 minutes of our film and this is because we don't want to reveal too much to the audience and leave the audience wonder what they think is happening or what they think will happen next. This film will have an element of mystery and crime solving to it and so we don't want the audience to know too much just in the first two minutes, an ambiguous beginning will be good.


Instead of a script we will have diegetic sound of heavy breathing, crying and screaming from the main character and maybe a chuckle from the side character of the 'villain' in the flashback scene. We will also have diegetic sounds of running and maybe birds tweeting in the forest. We will decide what sounds the characters will make when we are filming, as we will be in the moment and it will make it more real and not forced.
