It's a start...

I wanted to get a feel of what my movie might look like, of course this is only a rough animation of the first minute or so, but it gave me a helping hand for the order of the titles and how long the credits would take. I made this on Vegas Pro 9 so it isn't the best quality of animation and such that I would like, but that's why it's a draft.



I've included my false production company logo, the rough movie titling and the director's credit, but I've still got to think of what will go into the rest of the intro.

The shots I wanted the film to start with are;
  • A close up of Jason's eye; to show that the person narrating or just talking over the shots is most likely this man. The following shots gradually reveal more about the situation and personality, which have an immediate impact on the audience as to what he is compared to everyone else in society and why the film focuses on this man.
  • A close up of the handcuffs on Jason's wrist to show that he is a criminal or some sort of suspect in a case, but nothing else is known about him or what crimes he has committed.
  • A pan downwards on his torso to show the blood from Jason's crime to let the audience know that he has been close to someone being hurt badly or killed. But because he is in handcuffs the audience immediately assumes that he has killed someone. Along with his calm demeanor it could suggest that something is mentally wrong with him
  • A low angle shot of Jason's entire face to suggest he has power, but also revealing that he has blood over his face as well, which he hasn't bothered to clean off.
  • The final panning away shot of Jason sitting in the middle of the room with the detective towards the left of the frame to reveal the entire situation and setting; an interrogation room in which Jason is the suspect and the detective is interrogating.
I also want to include a flashback to the killing of Jason's last victim, but only showing the chase between Jason and his victim to imply that Jason has killed this person. These shots will be interlinked with the other shots and used in a way to shock the audience and imply that he has killed this person.
