Jasper's Media Tekkers: January 2017

Original Concept
This took around an hour to create after all of the editing and changing, however I had pushed myself into a corner with the amount of editing I could do due to the shapes. It also looked very low rent and although with some major editing and man hours put in the project could be salvaged, I decided to start a new with the cinematic.

I was not satisfied with the preinstalled fonts so I download a font from http://www.dafont.com/optimusprinceps.font?text=Cinemata&back=theme. I then adjusted the font size and used the alignment tool to centre the text.

I then adjusted the metrics to bring the letters closer together, creating a more flush look to the title.

I then wrote in the next line of text in the alternative version of the same font(less bold), and, repeated the same steps as the previous line of text.

Here I created a rectangle with no fill, and selected the trim path tool. This allowed me to edit the outline, which I put in 10 point.

Here I duplicated the first rectangle and added an offset which reversed the side which it was on.

I then added an adjustment layer which allowed me to add simulation effects.

Star Burst created the particle effect.

Mr. Mercury was the blodgy effect that smoothed out towards the end.

Drizzle added rain

Premiere

I used premiere to add sounds which I downloaded from, https://freesound.org/people/waveplay/sounds/183889/ and https://freesound.org/people/a23spyro/sounds/344749/. I then edited the volume levels to craete an echoey effect that fit with the theme of the film opening.

Debating whether to cut out a few seconds, unsure whether the collapsing title is nice or not.

EDIT

Added a fade to remove the flop at the end. Done to look more professional

Lionsgate Ident

I started with the original Ident and cut the sound.

I then found the ident shown before a horror film and converted it so i had only the audio file. (Added in premiere)

I did this because i did not like how tacky the ident looked after their own editing.

I decided to edit the original ident to fit with my own concepts.

I added an adjustment layer, then 2 masks, the first was just used as a background mask.

I then added the Curves effects to the second mask to change the tint red.

I had to key frame every few frames so that it was a clear gradual tint increase

I then added a second adjustment layer, which i used to add the snowfall effect. I then changed it to a yellow/orange colour to make it look like tiny embers. I also changed the size, speed and wind to create the desired effects.
