When designing my titles I had inspiration from Kubrick's, Eyes Wide Shut. I Wanted the music and titles to work together. So when making them I wanted them to be plain and with no effects. I made the titles white so that they stood out on top of the sepia's dark blacks and muted golds. The font I used is very similar to Time New Roman but every letter is a capital and the first letter in each word is bigger. I used this font because it was fitting to the time. Also because the story is based on true events which were made public by the newspapers at the time and the font is very close to tabloid style fonts.
I used Livetype and imported the titles into Final Cut. All the names which are shown in the titles are anagrams of my name with the exception to Claire Hollocks and Hans Dougal because Claire actually did play the music and Hans Dougal is an anagram of my Dad's name because he did not want his name to appear in the film.
