creating my opening title sequence

When I first started filming I thought that I would run out of time to get it all done. I decided to do the filming in my bedroom as I thought it would be easiest. I was then concerned about lighting because I wanted a dark atmosphere, however, because I was filming on my iPad, it was coming out too dark that i couldn't even see the characters moving. I then used a small light which was actually quite bright, but added tension, especially when it quickly turned off. When I was finally happy with the filming, i started editing. Editing didn't take too long to do for me. I put all the shots together and worked around that. I shortened a few scenes as there were parts that you could hear me saying go at the start to let the actors know to start the scene. There were also parts where there is a slight pause before the characters start moving. After cutting those parts out, the scenes started to flow through each other nicely. I then started adding black breaks in-between each to add tension to my opening. having the breaks between each section makes the audience wonder what will happen next and they will think that somethings going to pop out at them so it makes it more scary. I had to add between 15-25 titles in my video, so in some of the breaks I added titles such as, producer, cast director, editor, etc.
