In the last shot of these scene would be when we are introduced to the title.  Because we don't know the exact color of the background and what would contrast it best, every title is in bright red for the sake of being able to tell exactly where it should go for when we edit it.  Th...

Me and my partner would need to look at movies that give the horror idea since the beginning. After looking through, this website can give good i...
