Final Cut

Fonts

After looking through many different fonts on the website "http://www.dafont.com", we have decided on a certain font named seebreeze. We were looking for a plain simple font that wouldnt look too amateur. We felt this font fit perfectly so it was downloaded.

We'd also like to wish Tom A a happy birthday today!

Facebook Message

We have a facebook message so that we can communicate when we do not see each other at school eg. at half term or at weekends. This allows us to tell each member of the group any ideas or suggestions that we may have, and we can discuss them easily.

Main shoot: 28/02/2010

This shoot was not as successful as hoped. As feared the weather stopped us from filming most the shots we would have hoped for. For this reason we were only able to re-shoot the fight scene and a couple of others. Overall however everything neccessary was shot and we should be able to enter the final stages of editing with this new footage.

Titles - Order

We weren't really sure about the order that the titles come in. 

In the Watchmen opening sequence, this the order. We plan to loosely copy the order, but we will not include some of them. The video could not be embedded, but here is the URL:

MUSIC RESEARCH:

Below I have embeded two different videos:


-The first is by composer Sean Callery, whom I admire for his work on the US drama 24. This track, from the 24 soundtrack, is a briliant and inspiring example of a suspense filled idea.


-The second is a track from the hit video game COD Modern Warfare 2. Hans Zimmer, the composer of this particular work, is one of my favourite composers/sound designers, having produced the music for films ranging from Madagascar to The Dark Night. This extract (skip to 2:20-2:45) is a great example of fast paced action music. I really like its focus on percussive timbres and the electronic/techno-style soundscape created.
