Adding title designs

On March 4 I continued to edit my opening sequence. On this date, I added the titles for the opening sequence. I first export my video by clicking on the arrow in the top right corner and choosing the option export. I did this so, it would be easier to add titles since, there were a lot of things already on my opening sequence I wanted to make it less busy so, there couldn't be anything in the way when adding my titles. After exporting I made a new project and imported the opening sequence. After doing this I chose the "text" option and started choosing my font, color, and size for the titles. I use my "Title Design in Details" blog to help make designs for my titles. I ended up choosing the color white. After choosing my font style and color I started to type all the credits for the opening sequence. I would make many duplicates of the font style I wanted by clicking on "duplicate" and changing the text to what the credit I was writing to. I did this a couple times then, started to place them in my opening sequence to where I thought it would suit it the most. Some of the titles lasted longer in the scene because they had longer names which took more time to read. I also arranged them where you see the best on the screen. Some of them would be on the left side or on the right side. It depends on what the lightning was like. However, for the movie title, I put it in the middle because, when I research opening sequences, I usually put the movie title in the middle. To adjust the lengths of the texts I would click on the text and on the side it has a white bar that I could use to adjust. I would hold down the white bar and adjust it to where I wanted it. Adding the titles and choosing the font and style took around forty minutes to do. Because I wanted to make sure that placement was good and that the ones watching the video could read it. That's all that I did for today thank you for reading and bye!

Adding transitions and overlays

On February 27 I continued to edit my opening sequence. On this day I did overlays and added transitions. I wanted to add an overlay for the scene when the main character was calling her friend on the bed. To do this I changed my own contact's name to "bestie" and made it look like I was calling someone. I took a picture of the call. Then imported the picture to CapCut. To do this I clicked on the "add photo" at the bottom of CapCut and then chose the photo I wanted. After I clicked on the photo went to the options on the bottom and chose "overlay". After choosing the overlay I dragged it to the scene where I wanted. Adjusted the size and placed it on top of my phone. Then adjusted the length of the overlay of how long I wanted to have it on the screen. This was a little bit hard to do because I hadn't done something like this before. So, to add this overlay it took about forty-five minutes or more to do. I did the same steps for the "unknown...

Finding music and adding it to the opening sequence

On February 28 I was finding the music to use for my opening sequence. For my opening sequence, I needed to use copyright-free music. I was able to find some on YouTube that were copyright-free by searching for them. I needed to find an upbeat and cheerful song to use for the beginning of the opening sequence when the main character is listening to music. So, the first thing I searched for was copyright-free music for pop. The song that I found and used was Royalty Free uploaded by a YouTube channel that allows them to use their music as long as you give them credit. I used the "BreakingCopyright" YouTube channel's "Crazy About You" song for the beginning of my opening sequence. Another song that I used that was able to be free was "Mystery 7 Suspense Background Music for Films & Documentaries" by the YouTube channel "LVKEHOUSE" which allows anyone to use these sounds without any copyright claims. To find the mysterious sound effects I w...
