Credits

Credits have to be perfect in order to leave the audience thinking that they have just watched a profesinal film. If directors, actors, extras and many other people are not credited within films correctly or forgoten to refence everyone and their envolvement this would give very unprofeshinal feel to the film and would be an insult to anyone that was kind enough to help us in the creation of it.

I decided to create a mock up of some credits that we could potenially use. I say potentially use but the thought never crossed my mind that we would use them because I was trying to create them to look fancy and play around with the effects on sony vegas which is the editing software I have at home.

Half way through I decided I would use them as a DO NOT video in the creation of credits.

I made them look good so they could be used in the creation of other certian products with different requirments. But i also include some mistakes and left out some actors names.

Although I did leave out some names, consumers of the product would be unaware of this (unless it was a very well known main actor) but it is not the consumer that it would seem unprofeshinal to but the actors or technitions ...etc that were forgoten and worked hard aswell as giving their time to create the film.

Below is the video of the credits that we will not be using, because they do not fit the conventions of a steryotypical short film or feature length films credits as well as the mistakes they have within them and absence of actors.
