Feedback From Draft Four - Title Sequence
















These are the feedback sheets which we received after the screening of our fourth draft of our title sequence during our previous lesson. As a group we had already discussed and shared our thoughts about the soundtrack for our title sequence; we knew that the lyrics did not correlate well with our specific chosen genre type. However, some people complemented the soundtrack which we used but there was some negative feedback. We were told that the soundtrack did no have lyrics which do not necessarily link with zombies, death, isolation, etc. However, a few others complemented it for the simplicity of using social media as part of our title sequence for the effect.

I particularly like the concept of using Facebook for our fonts and titles instead of using spending time on Photoshop to edit and customise fonts for our title sequence. It seemed like a brilliant idea to display our fonts on Facebook; we will consider this for our final and improved title sequence (our fifth draft).

From the feedback we received previously, we have already begun using the 'Hypercam' software to create more screen recordings for our title sequence. We needed to create more zombie connotations according from our previous feedback. We have taken another video of someone attacking one of our characters to make it seem that the zombie apocalypse has begun.

We intended to make a minuscule amount of zombie connotations - we did not want to follow the typical conventions of our particular genre; we wanted our audience to constantly anticipate and determine the genre by viewing the visual connotations. We wanted our audience to find out about our initial genre at the end of the title sequence due to the name of our film ' A Zombie Movie' the name is generic and it gives away the purpose of the films genre; this is why we wanted to keep our audience guessing.
But due to our feedback we have added more zombie connotations from videos and images which will appear in our final title sequence draft.
