So I've been going at things a little bit out-of-order. I haven't actually had much time to sit down and develop my idea, so I've been watching a bunch of tutorials on editing and filming techniques, as can be seen to the left.
The main thing I've done so far is learning how to add a custom texture in Photoshop; my current idea for a title is Opal, and I wanted to try and add a gemstone texture to that.
The process itself wasn't too hard, it's just about finding the right base image; I first used picture of an actual opal for the texture, but it just doesn't have the look you'd associate with a gemstone, so for the second version seen in this photo, I tried using a cut topaz. I still don't think it's quite what I'm going for, but it's much closer than before. The current font is Mudstone Sans, which is really only a placeholder for what will be the actual font; I want something that isn't rigid, but also looks structured, which is kind of oxymoronic, but hey.
Back to Business (not this business though)
I haven't actually begun writing out a script or rough idea for my film opening, but I do have the idea in my mind, and I will have that all developed by the time of my next post. For now, I have a video project due tomorrow that I need to work on first, so further development of this will have to wait until Thursday. Ciao
