To make sure our film opening was unique in comparison to most others , I decided to create an animated opening for our production company which is called “ Wavey Productions
Firstly me and Marcus had to choose a font for the production companies name, since ours was to do with waves and water we chose a font called “Marcel” fromwww.dafont.com
We then wanted to add something more , so we looked for images which again represented water, we ended up choosing a surfer, we found a font on the same website called "athlete". After we consulted the group on our selected font and logo idea we downloaded the fonts to begin making the font.
we then put together a rough production logo in Photoshop by combining the fonts we had downloaded
After we had a final logo design , I created an animation for our opening using our logo , it was very time consuming but the end result was very pleasing. I created it using Adobe After Effects CS4.
Adobe After Effects is primarily used for creating motion graphics and visual effects. After Effects allows users to animate, alter, and composite media in 2D and 3D space. I did not create the animation at college , I did it in my own time at home, after i had created it i exported the file to an .avi (video file) and we uploaded it into or opening at college.
I began with a blank composition which looked like this :
After several hours of work , my blank composition was made into this :
below is a video clip of the animation I made.
