Titles -ideas and inspiration

OUR TITLE SCENE

IDEA

For our title scene we decided to have our final girl character be carving a pumpkin but we don't see what she's carving, then at the end of our opening when our scream queen is being stabbed to death the camera pans to the pumpkin from the beginning being sprayed with blood  and it has the word 'CARVED' carved into it (our title).

FONTS

For fonts we wanted to go relatively simple so that 'CARVED' is as legible as possible.

Our inspiration was the night of the living dead title font because its quite an iconic horror movie as well as being legible:

We also considered going with a more gothic font such as cherry falls: 

Our original title:

Our original title, although our vision and likes by the majority or the audience was not as legible as we would have liked so we intend to change it.

Title names:

(Morgans work)

Regarding titles, we firstly looked at our company names (Fatcat, Smokey and Hollyhock) and added them before anything, with "in association with", "a [...] production" etc. Then we looked at several movie openings to see the key roles that are most often shown in movie opening titles. These included some basics such as "Directed by [...]" and "Featuring", to some less often seen "Executive producer" or even "visual effects supervisor". We then came up with a first list of names that we can use for these roles, but we chose rather random names, and after some feedback from our peers, we decided that some of the names were too obviously not related to indie horror films, so instead we looked at a specific example. We ended up choosing the opening title sequence of "Final Destination 4", a body horror film. We took the names from the opening sequence and added one of the roles to each of them
