Credits!

Judging by our fourth draft for our film it may seem that Mac2 haven't got a clue about appropriate fonts, sizes and placing when it comes to film credits as ours are all over the place; too small, inconsistent and in some places non-existent. It looks as if the film has only six people involved excluding a director or we couldn't be bothered to name them all because the credits stop rolling half way through the opening...

Yes indeed it definitely seems as though we have lost the plot and our group are unable to follow the conventions of a film opening however, what we wanted to find was a suitable font and colour that would contrast with the film name and compliment the filming on screen. In draft 4 we have used 'Gaz' size 32 for the credits which is the same as the 'name of film' but before that we used a different font for the main actors.

To cut a long story short we have finally found a suitable font we can all agree on the right size and colour.We chose the faded yellowish white as it contrasts the name of the film colour which is dark and it goes with the soft music and crazy state of mind the character is in, making the audience sympathise her as we researched that the font colours have an essential effect on the dominant reading the audience will take from a film.
