Our opening titles are a mixture of two images; one being the tide washing in and out on the beach and the other being Megan scrubbing at the kitchen floor. We overlapped the two images and slowed them both down to a pace that best matched the motion of the tide. We chose these two shots because of how well they tied in with each other. The motion of the waves reflects the repetitive scrubbing of Megan (an affect of her OCD) when she has found out she has been cheated on and anchors the rest of the film.
For our film we stuck with the traditional white text on a black background. We felt this was appropriate because it looked more formal and serious to fit in with the message of the film; mental health is a serious issue. The black and white also looks very elegant and artistic which would be appreciated by the audience if it was to be distributed at a film festival like we have planned.
