Film Introduction

I created a short film introduction for a thriller. I decided to call it 'Inbetween'.

To use text, I clicked on the icon of the 'A' at the bottom right of the viewer and a drop down menu appeared. I clicked on 'Text' then 'Text' again from the next drop down menu. 

After that, I wanted to enter the text. To do this I went to Controls and typed in the text box. For my project, I entered 'Inbetween'. 

After that, I changed the font to 'Old Press' in the font drop down menu. I then changed the size with the size slider.

Once I entered the text, I dragged the text off the viewer and onto the timeline.

After that, I imported a clip of damaged film. I placed it on the timeline, above the text. This gave the text texture.

I added an effect. I did this by going to Effects, Video Filters, Glow then Bloom. I also added a Bad Film effect and Vignette. Bad film made the text shake and Vignette created a faded black boarder.

I then made another piece of text that also said 'Inbetween'. I placed this underneath the other text and changed it's size so that it was extremely large. I changed the opacity so that it faded into the black background. I also added Gaussian Blur as an effect.

I positioned the large text to where I thought it looked best. I then made it so that it tracked to the right. 

I rendered my work regularly so that I could see how the whole piece looked as I was working on it. 

Here is my completed film intro:
