Saul Bass Practical - Anatomy of a Murder

ANATOMY OF A MURDER

In our Media class we have been looking into designs and fonts that are usually seen in title sequences, we looked at the effect they give to the audience, layout, etc. We were exploring the text that is used pre-production (Added during recording or before) and those that are used post-production (added after recording) like this title sequence of 'Anatomy of a Murder'. This is my version of Saul Bass's title sequence 'Anatomy of a Murder':

My Version


Saul Bass's Version 

These videos had to be 20 seconds long so we had to get enough shots so that we could make up to 20 seconds. We used a camera to take the pictures and we had to cut out a few shapes from a piece of paper that was identical to the way that Saul Bass did it in his version. Every-time we took a new photo of the build up and isolation of the body, we had to take at least 6 pictures of the same image, by doing this allowed us to get the right amount to use per frame so that the video was long enough and the continuity work and flowed much smoother than it would have with just one photo and readjusting the duration of each frame. After we have taken the pictures, they were uploaded and ready to use in 'Final Cut Express'. From Final cut express we were abled to add text to the frames and music which is just like the original version by Saul Bass.
