Final Opening Sequence (Semi-Final)

The Video and Mini-Evaluation

Firstly, I balanced the audio a lot better in my opinion and cut to the static when necessary - the beginning indicating how fragmented the clips are as the reporter is cut off. I further mixed the stock footage and my own and included many elements from my last cut; the ending is the same in terms of clips used but I did make sure to blend it in more by adding effects to the clip - helping the transition to the title.
The credits felt like an issue in my last post and I have worked on better distributing the credits, opting to split the roles of editor and producer. This ensures that there isn't too much text in one slide at a time and better distributes the roles in the title sequence to demonstrate my knowledge of conventions. I could further demonstrate this knowledge by including credits for 'Lionsgate' and 'Generic Productions' separate to their logos, just to better integrate them into the credits.

One issue is that I don't meet the necessary amount of original footage required, requiring at least 30 seconds more. This is an issue but the most logical solution is to create a pre-credits scene as I don't necessarily need to focus on continuity with my other footage (i.e. the weather and makeup and haircuts of the actors). A possible way of doing this is by filming an interrogation scene with the character of Dan and a government official, perhaps establishing Dan as the narrator telling the viewer/government official his and Neil's story. By making a pre-credits scene, I also have better control over how long or short it has to be.
