Title Sequence

Jan 08, 2013

Hey all,

I wanted to find a way to generate some excitement about a course that is generally not exciting. I was inspired by the show Iris to create a title sequence to build tension leading up to the course. Check it out here and tell me what you think, also if you created your own title sequences link to them so we all can get some inspiration.

Tyus.

I love the background music! That really sets the mood, doesn't it? Looks like it's the opening to a hard-hitting news expose that's going to break the story wide open. I also like the mass amounts of letters and packages flying by and pouring out of trucks, that looks very dramatic.

Suggestion...(and maybe it's just me), the on-screen text "letters" and "packages" doesn't seem to quite live up to the drama of the rest of the piece. Is it possible to include a dramatic phrase, like could you add an exciting phrase? For example, "6,516 letters processed each second" or "40% of the world's mail volume"?

Nicely done Tyus!

Video title screens add emotion and grab attention. Have to agree with Kimberly that adding a bit more context to the lettering may have more impact. If you don't have statistical data to go with "Letters" or "Packages" perhaps a bolder/bigger font that's as dramatic as the music. 

Really love this! Well done.
