Editing credits

We wanted to make our titles quite fun. We decided to have them moving and we worked on making sure they moved the same way as the action and didn't take too much focus off the action. We wanted to have them moving as it tied in with the narrative of the character traveling around London. I am happy with the way the credits turned out although we didn't fit everything in that we wanted and we wanted the focus to be more on the action.
Originally we wanted to have the credits on a black screen moving along lines of a map as previously mentioned similar to the film Rubicon, however as it came to doing the credits we felt that it would take up too much time of the sequence and we would instead have them over the footage.
Then as we were editing we found that the footage didnt always flow, for example in one shot there would be a car in the background and in the next shot it would be gone. We therefore at that point decided that we would have footage and then cut away quickly to a black screen with the credits then back to the footage and it would be less noticeable. However, again, as it came closer to the time we realised that it would make the opening too long and we would have to cut out footage to make it the right length which we didn't want to do.
Once we had split screened, I suggested having the titles on at the same time as the split screen and move in between each box that came up. This would link it back to our original idea of having the credits moving on a map, but without the map. We tried this with the time that we had and although it may not be exactly how we envisaged we were happy with it.
