Final Project: Research 2

My next title that I wanted to research more in-depth was True Detective. I'd always been inspired by this even from my college work, where I'd done a huge project on Double Exposure. The technique was something I'd always loved, as it allowed you to convey messages from a still image and reflect the story of a person or object by overlapping it with another - it also created a beautiful image if done correctly.

True Detective was also inspired by Christoffer Relanders work, which I'd researched for my Photography project, so I was quite familiar with how he'd done his own style - this was all on one image on a singular piece of film, no photoshopping was done for the images to come out.

When pitching their concepts, True Detective used the work as a visual reference, marking this as their main inspiration.
"Visually, we were inspired by photographic double exposures. Fragmented portraits, created by using human figures as windows into partial landscapes, served as a great way to show characters that are marginalised or internally divided. "

True Detectives pace of the introduction is also something that inspires me, it matches the beat in a perfect manner and allows the audience to view each of the frames clearly.

I also integrated the research for True Detective into my own research. They focused heavily on researching the styles they wanted for their introduction, which is what I intend to mimic for my own project, as this is a good way of visualizing what you want out of your title sequence;
