I think this looks a little more light hearted than the other title, plus a bit cooler and more advanced. Also I like making witty taglines.
The spinning parts are made to resemble that of a clock, one spinning forwards, the other backwards. This puts forth the idea of moving backwards and forwards in time. Or at least it's supposed to.
Building on the previous title concept, I've actually added a title. Also I've decided to change the name of the film to "2 Alone". Because there's two people who are alone and it could be said that they are too alone. I'm aweful at word play.
This is the first concept title for "Alone". I plan to edit is more, maybe include more of a story into it, exploring the lives of Terrence and Angela and how one sat and did nothing, while the other searched for other humans. Or something to provide back story at least.
I've made it pixelated, almost 8-bit, because the style resembles a video game. Giving a game-like, fantasy-world sense. This creates a sense of fun, implying that the story isn't completely serious and should be taken lightly.
I also need to actually put the title of the film in there somewhere. But it took 1 hour of coding to make After Effects do a countdown like that. So I felt the need to upload it ASAP. What can I say? It's all about commitment and over-commitment.
Also, now that I think about it, it mildly reminds me of the Universal Studios intro to "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World". It's a completely different concept, plus it's an ident, not a title like mine. I probably got this idea from a part of my subconscious implanting traits of this into my conscious. I'm sure Sigmund Freud could explain it.
Considering that this is a film that I may not ever make, I've already put a lot of work into it. This is a fancy title screen that I created a few days ago. Why? No particular reason, I just have too much free time.
The smoke and vines make it more dreamlike and surreal. This is the vibe I would like the film to have. The mixed colours and texture give it a familiar, yet unnatural feel. This should be kind of unwelcoming.
The transition into the lighter part, with the rotating shape is to show the awakening and realisation of dreaming. The rotating shape is something I would like to have a similar look to the mask.
To improve this, I may make it more dark and gloomy, giving it a better feel to the film itself. It's also very long, this is mainly because I forgot to change the render settings though.
