Premier Pro 1232839/1

Created a notepad file and typed in the opening credits for the film. I then imported them into my bin which I labelled “Text”.

I then created a title clip using a rolling crawl and changed the font to Quartz MS to give the text a futuristic look.

By changing the settings I was able to make the credits roll in slower and I changed the settings so it would blend in and out.

The introduction music was too loud so I used the music settings to alter the volume using the master control buttons. I was also able to mark in and out the length of the audio and find the music I needed. I used the audio effects to add a phaser sound throughout the audio clip so make it sound futuristic.

I also used the audio transitions crossfade with constant power at the start of the clip.

I used the source video I had imported of James Bond to extract and make clips of the audio. This way I was able to isolate and remove some of the background noise and I didn’t want the video as I was going to add some different images using the audio of his voice.

I started by making in the part I wanted and then marking it out and dragging just the audio to my audio clips. I labelled each clip with the words he used.

This way I could remember what the audio was saying just by looking at the label.

I applied transitions to the introduction using the pen tool to have a continual gain using the audio effects.

Once I was happy with the sound I started to work on the images.

I imported more videos containing the bits I wanted into my video and also imported an AI logo that I had created and place that in the text file.

I applied a light flare which I made travel over the star using the solarize settings and making them go lower over time.

I created a dissolving transition between the shuttle opening and the logo so they would blend in and out so the images fade into one and other.

I noticed the source video didn’t fill the screen and had black borders so I right clicked the clip and highlighted “scale to frame” so the image would fill the screen.

I wanted the credits to roll over an image as they were first rolling over a black screen so I moved them to the start of the planet scroll image applying a gradual image blend in.

As the planets spin, the text gradually crawls over the screen.

I imported an Image I had created in PSD and applied transitions so it would appear after the credits and also added some highlighted effects to make the image look shiny and have a light source going over it.

I have used motion effects, solarize and a fast blur which create the feel of light on metal.

The effect is gradually faded out to nothing and you can see Lance in the background. I wanted there to be a ‘cut’ between Lance moving so left the screen with no effects, just spaced the images out.

The original clip of Daniel had black borders so I changed the frame size

Applying the scale in this way by unchecking the uniform scale button and moving the heights and width to percentages of about 150 makes his whole head fits the screen.

The magazine in gun scene was at night time so I applied effects to Daniel coming in through the door to make it appear that it was also happening at night.

I also had to enlarge the frame to match the other video so he would fill the screen.

Towards the end I cut the audio from the introduction sound clip using the razor tool and raised the audio for the silhouette scene while applying more volume to the voices.

I applied an end credit using the title header and made it fade in and out of the screen. I used the same quartz ms text and changed the opacity adding a sheen and using the fill type button.

This is a list of the websites I have used to create this short video.

AI Label 1232839/1

I drew star shape using the star shaped tool and warped it and applied a thick line using different brush thickness. I then used text to create logo. I created light flares using the flare tool.  Once I was happy with it I saved and exported it to a PSD file format to use on video and also resized to use on the DVD logo.

Here it is as a layer imported to the PSD file.

As an AI file

I created an ellipse path to type text onto to follow the curve of the DVD disc using the text on a path tool.

I created a flare effect on the DVD to keep with the space theme using the flare tool

I then imported the corona layer from PSD file converting it to use with the AI file and placed it on the background layer to create the earth like surface on the DVD.

I then imported the Epsilon 8 logo and DVD logo

I also imported the light flare on the right edge of the planet.

I created a text box and used the same type font as was used on the DVD video and DVD label.

I also used the spray paint tool to spray a symbol of the black figures onto the DVD.

I decided the face of Daniel Craig looked better without the blue face, so left it as a hidden layer and did the same with his hair highlights

I then created a custom gradient layer called the blue planet with transparency give the planet a blue tint similar to the DVD case.

Then I place my logo onto the DVD label

Placed the StarProductions logo and hidden some of the layers that I didn’t think worked that well.

This is the finished product which I am quite pleased with.

  

The guides will now be hidden when the label is printed.

Photoshop Tutorial

I used the dvd logo and placed it on a new layer on the back page.

I also added text to the back cover to explain what the film is about and added borders to make the text stand out.

I have also added a bar code to the back of the DVD case.

I moved a few things around so they looked better. Looking for more pictures of Daniel Craig and Sigourney Weaver.

The Sigourney pic is no good

Making another copy of the PG logo for the back page

Corona around the planet

I created a layer called Corona to give the planet a bit of oomf!
I drew a circle using the elliptical marquee tool and then made the circle thicker and used the linear dodge blend tool.
 
I used an inner and outer glow and then changed the advanced blending omitting the Cyan colour range.

This is the planet with the layer and corona.

I then created a light source so the planet would have another focal point. I used a large brush and colour light blue to paint an area on the edge of the planet by using a layer called light source.

At this point, the stars looked small and insignificant so I created another layer called stars and used a small brush size spatter mode to create more stars.

This give the overall feel of a real planet now.
