Creating Intertitles

One of my roles in my group was to create intertitles for our film trailer. As our film trailer is based on social media I felt that the intertitles should represent a popular form of social media. I decided not to use plain black backgrounds for the intertitles as even though they allow the intertitles to stand out I wanted them to appear relevant to the genre of our trailer. I felt that having the Facebook search page would allow individuals watching the trailer to clearly recognise the social media platform we are focusing on.

The intertitles 'friends or frenemies' is used to leave the viewers asking questions such as Is the friendship  group breaking down? or Who is the enemy?. The words 'ends' and enemies' is underlined and in the blue Facebook colour as we felt that 'ends' could suggest the ending of a friendship and 'enemies' suggests that secrets can have a significant impact on friendships. I put the words 'ends' and 'enemies' is the Facebook blue colour as it links in well with the background of the intertitles and shows more of a connection between the text and the background.

Creating the Film Title 'Disconnected'

I was also given the role of creating the film title for our film trailer 'Disconnected'. As our film trailer is largely based on social media we felt it would be suitable to have a film title that would clearly represent social media and one of the most popular social media sites, Facebook. To ensure the title clearly looked like a Facebook font I downloaded the Facebook font to my laptop. This allowed me to use the correct font and it allowed others to recognise the social media platform we are targeting. The '#' at the start of our title is popular within social media, we decided to use the hashtag to create more of an interest for our target audience of 15-20 year olds. The word 'disconnected' also holds the word 'connect'. 'Connect' is put in italics to show that the title can be interpreted in 2 ways. I also put the word 'connect' in Facebook blue to show the link between social media. The title 'disconnected' allows the audience to consider how friends connect throughout the trailer and leaves them asking questions such as What causes the friends to disconnect?
