Since the first few clips of my film opening are going to be based on credits, I decided to create a time lapse of the sun rising since the plot of the film takes place in the morning and gives the viewer a better insight of what is likely to happen next.
Although the sun rising is soothing to watch as well as relaxing. Time lapse, which is a technique of the frequency at which film frames are captured is substantially lower than the frequency at which the sequence is viewed. Time appears to be flowing faster and hence lapsing when played at normal speed. Time lapse visually symbolizes what my film is going to be about. Since catastrophic sequent moments happen to the main character, Lucas Paine, the fast motion of the sun rising represents just that. Here are a few examples from Youtube that I think have helped me endure a better perspective of what my shots could look like. Underneath the credits scene will be short clips of the sun rising. Although this will be a short clip it introduces representation, of the opening scene.
MY CREATION
Now, leaving your phone outside recording for the whole night hoping that your phone films a clip of the sun rising, is very complicated, and I say that because I put my phone outside my back yard and let something record, when all along I wake up to see no clip filmed. Therefore, I came up with a different idea to time lapse my video on reverse, I recorded the sunset on time lapse and then reversed the video to to play from finish to start. Creating the 'sunrise' effect.
