Motion Introduction

 Motion is a editing program which allows the user to create idents, movie titles etc.

The following screenshots is a tutorial of how to use Motion which i will open a template to demonstrate how to edit the text.

1) First open the program Motion and select the option 'start with a New Project'.



 2) Select a template you wish to use that catches your attention and suite the topic you are trying to create.

There are many templates to choose from so be patient and you'll find your desired template.







3) For example this is the template i chose to do which i liked the look of, it contained circles which were yellow and warped around the screen which gave the effect i wanted. I let it play out then chose were i wanted to add my words
 4) this is a screenshot of one of the scenes i liked the look of the lines creating a tree shape, i also liked the way it flowed so i could use it for a movie intro.
5) i used the A{text button} on top to create text then i decided to add what i liked to it, while in this stage you can edit the font and do as you like, use the time player on the bottom to play through and stop and edit the text areas and designs to what you like when finished export it to quick time into a movie or MP4 depending on what you need..

Editing process + Mp3Monkey review for music


Distribution Ident

Distribution ident





 After creating the production ident 'Prodigy' we decided to create the distribution ident from scratch without a template. This was a challenge in order for us to understand how difficult it can be to combine our knowledge to produce this. I personally found this hard to create because we had never used motion before so we had to rely on Youtube tutorial. Sometimes Thaomy had to guide me around with the program because most of the time she was editing. 

In the end I am proud of what it turned out to be with adding the shapes,transition and the title 'framework'. It came out looking like an actual ident.

Re-research for opening scene music.

Today I searched for music that suites, fits and complements our opening scene as the previous music founded by my group member didn't fit the concept and wasn't the type of sound we were looking for and wanted to have as we believe there is the perfect sound choice out there that I took the role of to find.

I used Creative Commons, SoundCloud search engine to search for music as we want copyright free music of course... On the hunt I became a little frustrated as some music which was perfect didn't have 'download' option the screenshot below is an example of a Dusbtep soundtrack that suited the scene where Joshua become addicted to drugs as the music gives a sense of "darkness" which is also mentioned in the title. But with a couple deep breaths I was ready to keeping hunting, you know what they say the bests to last.



Below are a couple of music I found that may be used in the opening scene:


I think this music is suitable for the bedroom scene as its a Dubstep song which fits perfectly to the theme of our opening scene but its slow as mentioned in the title 'Slow-Dubstep'. Also this music can be used in the park scene once he has the drugs as its gives the sense of troubles coming along in the coming scenes. 



I believe the soundtrack below will suite the scene that Joshua becomes addicted to the drugs as it starts off slow then builds up with a climax which will complement the scene. But in the beginning there's a voice saying "oh yeah" which would have to be cut out and moved around to see if we can still keep the beginning and see if it'll fit seamlessly with the rest.  


I can see this soundtrack being played in the detention scene just before Joshua try drugs for the first time due to the beginning maybe just cutting the first couple seconds and repeating.

Ident editing in Motion

Ident editing in Motion 


I began with creating the production ident which is now called 'Prodigy'. Thaomy didn't like the name 'Mcintosh' because she said it looks too serious and decided to rename it as 'Prodigy'. In the end I've gained experiences because I didn't know how to use the program so well, but I used a template to help guide me. This was actually easier than final cut pro because you only need to click on the template and re-word it.
