For this new project, we have to choose a title sequence from a movie or television show to replicate in stop motion. I looked at a few openings of movies, including: The Lego Movie, Juno, Russell Howard’s Good News, and Catch Me If You Can. I found these all very interesting, and how much time it must’ve taken to plan, storyboard, and create. I also viewed the Monsters Inc opening, and found it very clever how the animation works with introducing us the world of Monstropolis, and also the credits of Pacific Rim, seeing how the graphics, colour and music come together.
The title sequence I have chosen is from the 2014 movie, Dinosaur Island. I found the sequence very cleverly made, as a watercolour effect has been used to show off some of the creatures in the movie. The music is very enigmatic, reflecting the mystery of the movie’s setting. I found it very effective, and had some ideas to put the sequence to stop motion. I plan to make the creatures move, using models I have at home, and use Final Cut Pro in order to help with the watercolour effect.
