When creating my ident for my film I wanted to use a photograph I had taken and I wanted it to be quite natural. This is why I chose a photograph of flowers which I decided to place on the top of a black background. I thought that the black background would make it look right when I place it with the film. I selected the part which I liked the best and positioned it in the centre of the frame. I then decided to use the first letter of my production companies name which is E for Electric productions. I wanted the flowers making the letter so I inserted the image into the outline which make it so you could only see what was inside the outline.  When deciding on a font I could use for my title I wanted something bold and something that would stand out. First of all I chose the colour of the font which I thought would be white because that would stand out against the background the most.

I thought by choosing this font I would then highlight the importance of the text and what it is saying. I wanted to include facts about autism to make it educational which adds another dimension to the film.

I ending them so they scrolled up like professional credits which looks really effective, I again used the same font. 

When editing my sound I wanted to emphasise certain aspects of it to create the idea that people which autism experience things differently. I decided to use Adobe Audition to do this. It was very straightforward to use after researching methods on youtube. Once I had selected the sound that I wanted to edit I then placed it into Audition. I then placed a filter on it which allowed me to change the levels of the clip which in turn changed how it sounded. I wanted to amplify it and change the pitch. I changed several levels, hearing the difference every time to se whether it was what I wanted. I then found a section where I could amplify certain pieces of the clip I again altered it slightly then listened for the change, I wanted to also include a slight echo to create the idea that autistic people almost hear sound bouncing off of the walls. I did this with the majority of my sound clips which I then decided to overlay to create intensified sound.
