For our production logo we wanted to incorporate the idea of guns and violence into our logo but also have it moving since most production logo's have an entrance or behaviour elements attached to them such as the Miramax logo which has a flying effect as the camera tracks through a city and then dissolves into the static logo.

As we intend to use an animated title, we decided to use a video clip, as opposed to animating stills. Rather than filming the shots ourselves, we decided to use a pre-existing video clip on YouTube. However, it took some time to find one suitable for our production.

Once we had found a video similar to what we had in mind, I downloaded it with Realplayer.
Once downloaded, I then edited it down to the required 6 seconds in Windows Movie Maker at home, as the clip was 18 minutes long in total.
It was then exported in high definition in order to match the shots we had already filmed and uploaded to Dropbox to then be edited in Pinnacle.
Once uploaded, it was spliced every 12 frames and some were deleted at random in order to produce jump cuts. A filter was then added in Magic Bullet and adjustments were made in Chroma Keyer. Finally, the Movie Trailer Complete motion title was added.
Sound effects were added from Soundbible.com, as the sound from the actual clip wasn't what we required.
