Trailer picture

This is the link to the image which most of the trailer have at start.  

 

In the movie the logo has been put a lens effect from the top right letter ‘M’ which runs down, goes around the ‘D’ of production and straight finished to the dot of ‘I’.  This idea came from one of the singles came out recently by an artist called ‘Nafees’ and his song called ‘Bukhar’ which came very famous. The lens effect I saw there which I liked a lot so though why not use in my movie.

- Audio:

There are few audios which I have used to make the movie.

Firstly the song called ‘Allah duhai hai’ from an Indian Movie cinema, Bollywood which named as ‘Race 2’. The name of the movie was also influenced from this movie. I used the song after the MK production passes and goes through the middle and then at the end where it says ‘aint one gonna race like me’.  This is the link to the video song; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR2H1I6yabg

Secondly with the MK production there was a mystery tone been added to go with the lens effect. It was also got from YouTube and this is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbDFAaPfl28  and there was only a bit of the sound was taken from the movie and that was from 1:39 till 1:45.

Thirdly, when the movie appears on the speed dial of a sports car was also taken from YouTube; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxYj2T6OKq0  . The video was edited just the speed dial bit to go with the race 2 song and alongside with it the edited video was forwarded twice the speed of the actual video as I only needed that part but in quick section.

Fourthly, there was the acceleration sound which also came from YouTube; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWFzmH4vwGo  . This however was needed to be put alongside the speed dial as the sound didn’t match once the video was fast forwarded to the original speed of the video.   

Titles:

Across the movie there are few titles runs to give audience a hint of what the movie is about, they were planned by men on my phone and these are the evidence;

Journey begins

 

to become the best

 

local league

 

the mainstream race

These titles were edited onto Primer which had fast blur effects with all of them. The colour of them was white with a pinkish glow as this goes with the DVD case background. There was also another title which got added into the movie and that was ‘coming soon’ and this had the same effect as the other titles.

- Hampton way:

This is a video which my friend helped me to record while I was driving on the dual carriage way. The reason for the video to be there are that one is my creation and the other is that because there was a need of local league video shoot and for this reason the video been added to the movie. 

- Mainstream race:

This video comes in about the ¾ of the time and is also taken from YouTube; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDP7Pty8Qnw . The edition to the video was just the one I wanted when I first saw it and that was the car in a drag race as this went with my mainstream race.   

-  Race font from DVD cover

The font was saved as a png file so the need was just to import it into my movie and then add the coming soon underneath it.   

 

 

DVD Lable

 

The DVD label did not need extra work to be added to it as they are most the copy of the actual DVD case. Therefore these are the things which were copied to the actual DVD label;

1.        Race text with the sub line, ‘started by many and ends by one’.

2.        All the logos i.e. universal, age restriction, fact and Dolby digital.

3.        The Desert with the car

4.        City image background

5.        There was a restriction writing been copied from one of the original movie DVD label and you can see in the image below.

 

 

 

DVD Cover

Starts – 12^th May

Finished – 8^th May

The reason I did not mentioned these in log book as the information are all blogger and would be copied here. However this was like a paper assignment to be hand in so therefore to be organised, it would be better as each specific task has been created to make it easier to read.

Borderline:

The whole DVD case needed to be professional so therefore Jamie took us to designed and the page layout as a class.  

Background: for the DVD page there was needed of large resolution pictures as the setting of the page was really big there for in the search engine of Google there was a picture of a city I found which I liked it lot to go with my DVD case. Once the picture got imported into the Photoshop, edition of the picture was started.

Firstly the picture of the case was too big and the part which I wanted was mostly on the right hand side of the picture as you can see in the image below. Then it got cropped in Photoshop to get the exact size and therefore been imported into the main DVD cover. However the left side was still missing so I thought it would be better to have a mirrored image on the left side to the right side so the picture got pasted twice.

Secondly, the picture was been played around the hue and saturation tool in Photoshop to get nice bright colour in its background. Alongside there was a lens affect been added into the background at the top as this was to go with the name of the movie, ‘Race’.

   Thirdly, I had the actor photo on the background image as a new layer but however once the text was been put the image look really bad so therefore the actor image was deleted.

Fourthly, the lake needed to be deleted from the actual image but however this would make the image as a whole look worse. Therefore a thought came in my mind that why not add a desert onto them which will look much better and at the end it did turn out to be much better compare to the lake image. The image below is the picture of the desert which I took from Google search engine and only two edition to it and they were the size been kept to match the DVD cover and the sky at the top of the desert been removed.

 Car:

The desert had a road in which made me put forward the idea to put a car in the road. The car which looked better was a white colour Bugatti as the car is very much famous and expensive and also the white colour looked really nice to go with the colour of the image as it its dark and white will stands out. However the car itself went through few editions.

Firstly the image background was deleted. This is because an image without the background removed would looked un professional so therefore in Photoshop it got edited.

Secondly, the car has to be eye catching on the road of that desert as its dark and the colour of the car is not enough. This is where the lens effect comes in which were put onto the car headlights looking like its coming to you.

This image below is the evidence of the car been edited into the Photoshop.

 

 

Font of race:

 

This is the name and logo which I came out with it at the end.

It got started from a normal text with the size over 100 pt. As the text was to show the movie name race so the design of the name go edited into the race style as the name is running into the race. The effect which was able to do this was the tiles effect with it the three dots were also turned out to be excellent.   

The movie name looked simple so a sub line was thought to be put as little guide about the movie. Therefore I came up with a line and that was ‘started by many ends by one’.

 Flags:

On the DVD case there was a car, road and a name race so the only one thing was missing in the race is a racing flag. Therefore using the Google search engine got the racing flag. To make the flag to be able to be on the poster there was some edition needs such as the background needed to be deleted. Once the background got deleted all the white parts of the flag got deleted. Therefore using the paint tool and quick selection I manage to fill the empty spaces with the white colour.

Story line:

For the story of the movie was came by me from all the movies I have been watching about racing. This made me came with a story of a poor guy whose heart is in racing cars and winning the mainstream race which is the worldwide racers will be racing each other and winning the competition. The image below is the story line to the DVD case.

The guy on the left is the hero in my movie and in real life he is a Bollywood actor named Saif Ali Khan and the image on the bottom right is from the video which I used to put in my movie. 

 

 

Movie information:

The movie information was taken from reaching many other DVD case as my work place is at supermarket where all the DVD gets sold, therefore I had browsing them for half an hour and came with the information at the end which is shown in the image below.  The most important information I thought that would be put on the DVD case was the running time, subtitle of the movie and its language. 

Logos:

The logos which were used into the movie poster were taken from the Google search engine and there were only 4 of them which I thought would be very useful alongside there was my half hour research on the DVD case;  

-          Universal

The logo was imported from internet into Photoshop and once a picture is in clipboard and when you get an new page in Photoshop, it automatically reads the size of the image you copied. http://logos.wikia.com/wiki/File:Universal_Studios_Home_Entertainment.png

The background was deleted as I wanted the logo to be white with the background delete.

 

Once the background was deleted there was a need of colour change so colour overlay was a good option and then a shadow just to give a professional look.

-          15 age restriction

The age restriction was just copied from internet as this is to with the originality in the restriction. This is the link of the logo; http://www.rswebsites.co.uk/mediafilm/production-toolkit/bbfc-15/ .  

-          Fact / Dolby digital

Fact and Dolby digital was performed in the same manner as universal logo. Firstly the back ground was deleted and then the colour overlay came in to give it a white look to go with the desert image in the background of the DVD case. 

-          Barcode:

This is one of my creations towards the assignment and it was created in Photoshop.

Step one was to get a white background page and then add some black colour stripes. This image image was taken at the creation of the barcode.

 

 The other thing was to add another more stripes but have to keep some thick and others really thin. Once the stripes done then the numbers will be added to the stripes and they were random numbers which came into my head and I just added them. The image below is the finished barcode which I came out on Photoshop and was ready to go onto my DVD case.
