Small final changes to the title sequence
Bad film:
After adding our new clips to our title sequence to show that Christian plays a doctor role and to make our character look more medical, we decided to add a 'bad film' filter to this piece to show that this is a past flashback of the Doctor's career to introduce the audience to the character but the first clips and his workplace is slightly irrelevant to the title sequence's plot.
As a summary we added the bad film filter to present the character's occupation for a better understanding for the rest of the title sequence, however this is trying to be shown in past flashback so there is less confusion that the setting of the Doctor's workplace is not seen by the second character, Maria.
Change of editing:
Lastly we also decided to change the editing of the Doctor walking along the street following Maria slightly. Before the change, the doctor's footsteps were repeated and a dissolve transition was used to follow this repeat on the title sequence. We decided to take this out because it gave the doctor a view that he is perhaps not alive and a ghostly feel to the character. We found it too supernatural so we changed it to fast jump cuts to represent eager towards catching up with Maria instead of the repeated steps which did not really fit in with the atmosphere we was going for.
I'm glad we made these final changes to our title sequence because adding and removing some of the techniques we used has made the title sequence slightly more understanding and more fitting for the theme of Thriller that we were aiming for.
