The Keep- Test Title Sequence

I have reshot a lot of the footage that I had gained whilst location scouting. I wanted to do this due to a lot of the original footage being very shaken due to the windy weather and I found it looked unprofessional.

Therefore I set out to the location of the old World War Two pill box and commenced filming once more. As it turns out, the weather wasn't pleasant and the sky had become quite dark despite filming around lunchtime. I felt that this suited the overall tone of the production more and thought it would be perfect for use in the opening title sequence. Many of the shots taken this time around were the same as before so filming was relatively quick. The final footage was much less shaken and looked smooth and more professional as a result.

During editing, I managed to get some stock footage of mountainous regions to help to establish the setting of the production. I also made changes to the overall colour-grading of each shot to reflect the darker themes and desired style. The fonts used are reflective of the classic war films between 1960 and 1980, particularly reminiscent of 'Where Eagles Dare' which has remained my primary inspiration.

For the purposes of this test title sequence, I have only included certain details when relating to actors and crew, mostly using character names and crew titles, making it clear that this is an unfinished production.

I have uploaded this onto Youtube. Unfortunately, due to mistakes during the export stage, the video is not in HD. However, this is only a test version anyway:
