11. Titles

We wanted our titles to be both scary and creepy and decided on a blood red, scratchy font. 

We want our titles to look something like this: 

The blood red to symbolise violence and attack and the scratching of the font to portray the character of 'Frank Deavell' as he has a claw as a hand due to a deformation as a child. The scratchiness of the title could also create the idea of someone or something trying to get away but being dragged and there nails could create sharp and blunt scratches quite like our titles. The sound of a long scratch is uncomfortable which is the effect we want to create for the audience.  Our titles appear within the actual film in most shots for example, in the shot of the note in 'Susan's' hand the title of an actors name will first appear and then after the actual writing on the note will appear and in the shot of 'Susan' walking into the location the title will appear on the wall of graffiti to make it look as if it is graffiti itself. We thought this would look effective and make the titles more interesting in a more subtle way. The name of the film will first appear 'House of the slasher' to create sudden suspense and then next the names of the cast ordered by most importance and most screen time to least within the film, then followed by the names of the crew ordered by least importance to most.
