Planning; Title design

 Hey Gems. Honestly I can not wait fir you to see the final version of this design and how it will look with the film movie. But let's get into what I'm calling a preview.  The opening credits of the film will fade into the film and fade out, in the middle of the screen. Some credits, though few, will also fade into the scenes. For example, credits will fade in the left corner which would be the grass of the fair, or on the right of the top screen.  Working Title: The title of this film is likely to be “The Fun Fair”  It will be in a font called “courier” and it will be in all Caps: SOMETHING ALONG THIS STYLE. Titles will all fade into the film and also fade out of the film. All titles will disappear after 2 or 3 seconds but the main title will disappear in 4 or 5 seconds. Depending on the color of the scene I will be using black and white font. It will look something like this: FILMED BY: JENNIFER HERNANDEZ The first name of the person who holds the job will be 2 sizes larger

But these are not the title we'll be going over today.  But they do serve a similar purpose.  Let's go through what I've learn. The two websites I have chosen for this research are http://www.artofthetitle.com/ and http://www.watchthetitles.com/. These websites are really good for many reasons.

They are both great websites and t
