Putting it all together And Tweaking the Animation

Checking to see what works and what doesn't.

I wanted to know which music will fit with the video
Plus we would like to add our company logo into the video.
The Logo

The Animation tweak is that and play with the time and some cars are removed.


3 Type of music. With links.
  1. Police Scanner
  2. Music
  3. Sound Effect
Plus we wanted to put our company logo on the screen. Similar other games and movies. Before the title roles in we would show the company logo. Similar as below. However, we would neglect going into the story and jump straight into the title page.


I put together video.

How I put together the video.
I used a software called Hitfilm to editing the video.
And Youtube Video Downloader to download the Youtube videos.

The Youtube Video Downloader. How it looks. Simple and easy to use.

The more technical side. Hitfilm.

After you add video into the software.
I deleted video and kept the audio of all youtube video downloaded.

To do that, first you need to unlink the video.

The you click on the video track and delete the video.

I did it a few time and got all my video and audio. I used some basic transition effect to make the video more fluid. I cut a video of my previous project so I can add the logo to the video.

After all that I exported the video

By the way it took about 35 minutes to export.


The format of the test footage is such.
  • The company logo
  • A raw improve version of animation [ Less traffic ]
  • The animation with police scanner as audio.
  • The animation with music as audio.
  • The animation with sound effects as audio.
The video is below. Hope you enjoy it. I think I found when I place the logo at the start I failed to remove a few frame from the video I took it from. I could export the video again but it took a long time to export video and the purpose of video is not loss with a few frame added to it.


Looks like the a single background music is simple and effective way to convey the idea of the game. So we should go with a single music for the video.

Horror Narrative

So since I am making a horror game, I need to know what kind of narrative I should right. One of my previous post, I wrote about "What is Horror" which covers many of this. Now I would to dive deeper into this. Certain design choices made before production due to time and resources constraint. First Person Point of View No Dialog One repeatable Level [Check My Previous post for the layout] Its an Horror Game One Ghost / Young Girl Lack of Props  This means, I have to design Narrative through Visual Means, I cannot take the easy way out of dialog and words. I have to show Emotion and Story through Color, Layout, Lighting, Atmosphere and Sound. So before I start, I would like to share the common Problems for the Horror Genre. 3 Reasons Why Today's Horror Films Are Just Not Scary Anymore Usually people who make horror focuses on JUMP SCARES.

Adding the Disclaimer

The original idea for the disclaimer is to be a classic Disclaimer. Example can be seen below. At minute 7.17 can see the example Link for the video at 7.17 However, Andrew has prepared the video before seeing my comment and his approach works much better so we ticked with it. The sources for the disclaimer. First I found a template from this website.  Template THE DISCLAIMER Here is a standard motion picture disclaimer...

What it takes to make a Title & Credit Screen

Finding the best way to present a title and credits screen. The solution should be simple and elegant as must not get in the way in the creative process of the telling the story. Title Screen Should be done in a way to sell the idea of story or more importantly establish the mood, feel and pace of the story. Eg. Credit Screen I Credit screen as 2 things. There is one version where it is to allow the audience to absorb the story and its conclusion. An epic story that is told beautifully takes a good amount time to comprehend and swallow. Eg. After watching this 2 video above we can see that we need a few amount of time to stretch and realign ourself as our epic journey with the story comes to end. Therefore, playing the screen credits will allow us to recover from experience. There a credit screen's where audiences wants to find out what will happen now. After the story is over, the character got what he wanted all is well, we still want to see what happen to rest a...
