Help for Kelly Brooke's 2D Film Trailer - 'Blessed Curse' - Title Screens

Kelly asked me on board to create this title sequence for her film using After Effects. She emphasised that she wanted the colour red to play an integral role in setting the style and tone of the sequence - complimented by a 'scripted' style typeface designed in Photoshop - topped off with a 19th century victorian wallpaper pattern acting as a background element that helps complete the piece. From what I know of the film, it will be a Japanese/Tragic Fairy-Tale fantasy love story - and those genre components were important to integrate here, hence why the title/font teleports in, slowly revealing itself as though it was a fairy tale character coming to spellbinding life, ominously revealing itself. In the end, the darkness creeps up from the bottom right of the composition and consumes the piece - to really build on the tragic atmosphere. This, lathered in a hue of crimson/red reflects the tragedy of the romance in the story and I believe as a whole, the piece reflects everything that Kelly is wanting to create.
