Text updated
When we looked at our feedback we realised that a main issue we needed to consider changing was the text. We received a few comments which suggested we wrote them out neater so the audience could read them more clearly. One comment said 'make the text more exciting by spending more time writing it'. when we filmed for the first time all we did was wrote them as if they were actual labels on presents therefore we didn't spend much time writing them. We need to improve this when re-filming to make them more interesting to read, they need to be bold and we need to pick an exciting font type to do this.
I said I would focus on re-writing the titles as I had a few good ideas of how to present them as I had the job of looking at text when we were planning. I had come up with some ideas which the group liked and this also included writing on baubles.
I practised writing out some titles and took some images below...
The images above show the baubles I wrote on, we chose different text which was clearer then before and also chose different names as another suggestion we got was to change names as we kept repeating the same names. I used tipex to write on the baubles and took my time so they were neat.
These images show other labels we used, I had the job of writing these out too as I had neat handwriting. I used the same props as before (Christmas card and present tags) to write the titles and took time making the handwriting more suitable for the genre. When I was researching text when we were planning, I came across a few that looked good, one of them looked similar to the text I used above.
Here is an image screenshot of some of the similar fonts I looked at when planning.
We decided it looked best if we used the writing that curled such as the second ones down because it is suitable for Christmas and it was quite easy to copy. We decided to use different text font for the baubles because it was already difficult to write on them as they were small and a difficult shape so we used a simple text like the last font shown above.
