Our pitch

Below is the video of our pitch we did about all our ideas for our thriller opening title sequence.

I think that our pitch went well as we made sure that we explained our points and our ideas. We also made sure that we including typography, job roles, our idea, the style and genre of our thriller and the unique selling point (USP). We explained where the titles might appear throughout our opening sequence and where and when our main title will appear. To improve our pitch we would make sure that we learn what we are going to say before so that we are not reading off a piece of paper.

Our teachers comments are below:

Using the website WWW,dafont.com we chose 5 different types of typography for our thriller title. Each typography is distorted which suits our theme of a psychological thriller. The narrative of our thriller is also quite mysterious and these different types of typography that we chose suit this idea because they all look like titles which could be used in a psychological thriller. We chose the name of our thriller opening title sequence before we looked at the typography this is so that we knew what kind of typography we were looking for and if it related to the genre and the story line.

This screenshot above shows the poll that we created and it also reveals the most popular typography which was number four. This typography is a good choice because it reflects the story line of our thriller opening titles and therefore we will be planning on using this typography all throughout our opening title sequence. This typography suits our thriller genre as it looks like a type-writer font which is sometimes used in this thriller genre, it also reflects the narrative of our thriller.
