Slasher horror intro:
- Slow pacing, restrained movement, little dialogue
- Empty areas, night scenes, shadows
- Danger is implied, not shown
- View should know within the first 30 seconds that it is a horror movie
We will be using both "Premiere Pro" and "After Effects" to create our film opening. While Premier Pro creates rhythm and tension, After Effects will make our intro cinematic.
Premiere Pro:
- Where we will import clips, music, and sound effects
- We can arrange clips in order on the timeline
- Premiere Pro allows us to use hard cuts rather than transitions
- It keeps clips dark
- We are able to add background sounds or even silence
- We can control the pacing to be slow, creating uneasiness
After Effects:
- After Effects will let us create the title, and credits if needed
- We can animate opacity, scale, or blur to help signal to the audience something is wrong
- It also allows us to add overlays like film grain, flicker, or light distortion
- We can add effects to the text such as a small jitter or a fade in/out to make the text imperfect
Why they work well together:
These two software editing apps work well together because they are built for different jobs. Premiere Pro is used to cut clips, build structure, and creates the overall story telling. On the other hand, After Effects allows us to change how things look without worrying about the overall edit. You are also able to send a title or clip from Premiere to After Effects, which saves time and keeps everything synced. The big picture is, Premiere controls when things happen, while After Effects creates the tone.
