Feedback
Our ots was shown to three students, who gave feedback, and one male as he's part of our target audience. Feedback is given in areas of titles, costumes, storyline, transitions, sound, and the use of camera. They were positive but they mentioned the un-steadyness of the camera in some parts, even though a tripod was used throughout filming, but this happened when we were trying to tilt the camera and zoom into various areas, causing the camera to be a bit shaky in some parts.

sin city
http://www.flvmp3.org/video/VspdKtdsku8/Frank%20Miller-s%20Sin%20City;%20Opening%20Title%20Sequence.html
This is a video for the opening title sequence for Sin City
Sin City is a 2005 neo noir crime thriller film, written, produced and directed by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez. The opening part starts with the camera panning out on the city with which the tallest buildings spell out ‘sin city’ which is covered in red and turns into comic style writing against a black screen. This then fades to a comic opening that introduces the characters, and synchronous music, so it goes with what's being shown so you have an idea of what will happen when this appears.The red writing is used for the names and goes across screen, and it has a dark edgy effect, and the comic photos are black and white and quite contrasted. Based on the graphic novels by frank miller, each character is depicted in the original animation in the title sequence as the actors name appears who portrays them. There is an unbalanced equilibrium. As the OTS ends the music ends and the screen is black. Sin City gathered particular recognition for the film's unique color processing, which rendered most of the film in black and white but retained or added coloring for select objects. A notable piece of music used was the instrumental version of the song 'Cells' by 'The Servant.' The song was heavily featured in the film's publicity, including the promotional trailers and television spots, as well as being featured on the film's DVD menus.

ots description
In our opening title sequence, we have no sound (apart from the piano piece we will add in afterwards), which will synchronise with what's happening on screen, so will heighten in certain areas and seems more dramatic. We have titles during our ots to introduce the actors and producers and the title 'the vulnerable' of the ots. I think it works well because we thought about continuity and the locations and lighting we have throughout our ots.
Production meeting
Today we were finishing editing. I will look at whether our ots works as a title sequence well with the general conventions etc.. Rachel is writing about the language for our ots and Katherine is looking at the sound, as it would be easier if she is creating the piano piece for our ots.

Production meeting
Today we are continuing to edit our ots, and we are putting in another clip so it flows better, as watching it back we felt it jumped a bit when Rachel was walking down the alleyway, as we filmed it from different angles, so we were thinking carefully about continuity and how the audience can understand it
