Titles

I really like the way the titles appear. And how they go away.
It would be really good if i could incorporate this type of animation in to my film so a car could drift past and swipe the words away or someone could walk over them and they fall over. I think this would look grate in my film and want to find out how this was done.

Sugar Glass video

This is a video of how to make sugar glass.

Sugar glass part 2

  1. Mix water, corn syrup, sugar, and cream of tartar in the pot. Stir often and bring it to a boil slowly. If you boil it too quickly, it'll caramelize. As it heats up, it'll go from a cloudy color to clear.

  2. Promotional Rock Candy

    1. 2
    2. Heat the mixture to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C), then remove from heat. This should take at least an hour. Use a candy thermometer, but be careful not to let it fall in the mixture (as shown in the video below). You might want to tie it with a string or find another means of holding it up without your hands.

    3. Note that somewhere between 210 and 240 degrees F, the temperature will stop rising temporarily, so don't think the thermometer stopped working. At this point the water is evaporating. Once the water is fully eliminated, the temperature will begin rising again.
    • The sugar glass mixture will stick to the skin and cause burns. Don't dip your finger in or let it splash.
    • At some point it may also begin to turn yellow. It will take lots of sugar glass making practice to learn exactly when is the right time to remove the mixture from heat so that the glass is clear, but still hard.

    1. 3
      Spray the cookie sheet generously with cooking spray or put on tin foil.


    2. 4
      Pour the hot mixture very carefully (and with thick gloves) into the cookie sheet. Pour slowly to minimize bubbles.


    3. 5
      Put the cookie sheet on an even surface. This will help the mixture spread out evenly so that the finished glass isn't thicker on some spots and thinner on others. Leave the mixture to dry for about an hour. After 25 minutes it should be cool enough to touch, but it isn't hardened, so don't take it out until the full hour has passed.


    4. 6
      Carefully remove the dry glass from the cookie sheet. Take a knife and heat it up under hot water, then carefully cut along the very edge where the glass meets the edge of the pan. Carefully pry it up. Then flip it over and slowly lift the pan away from the sugar glass that is resting on your hand.
