Introduction
For this blog I am going to be showing the sounds that I wanted and/or have used for my Opening Sequence. I will also be showing examples of other title sequence that have used this Music or sounds.
Ideas For Sound
For my opening sequence I have thought a lot about the music or soundtrack that I want to use with it, as i am doing a comedy i have to find the soundtrack that gives the opening sequence that "comedy" feel.
As we are not allowed to used copyrighted music and therefor have to produce the soundtrack our self, for this problem I used my friend Vincent to sing and play the soundtrack, this meant that i could get the singing and the music done at once.
I watched many different comedy opening sequences, and listened to lots of "comedy" songs. After much comprehending I managed to limit it down.
These are the title sequences that I liked the soundtrack of:
This is the opening sequence to "Weeds" I have already done research on this as I like it and the way it uses its titles, I also really like the music that goes with it as it portrays what everyone does every day, for my opening sequence as they are going to school everyday I feel that having this repave song will work with the opening to help build the right picture in the watchers eyes.
This is another Opening sequence that I like the sound track to, although this is not a film and just a T.V show i still think that the opening sequence helps us build the picture of the story in our minds:
After seeing these opening sequences, I felt that although my opening sequence is about friends, that the song from "Weeds" would work better with my opening sequence. The song is called "Little Boxes" by Malvina Reynolds.
Although the song went very well and in time with my opening sequence I had to record it myself, I then asked Vincent if he could sing and play the song for me. Although the song was originally sung by a woman i feel like Vincents version worked very well. I recorded his soundtrack by using Garage Band on my mac and then moving it across to iMovie. As my Title sequence was longer than the song I had to find a point in the song that I could unnoticeably start the song again so the music is playing the whole time. At the end of the title sequence I faded the song out so that it didn't end abruptly.
