One of the very first films ever made showed a girl being tied down to the railway tracks and being run over. We decided to reference the birth of true cinematography in our production by using a similar idea, this would give our film a more retro feel to it. This is accentuated by the effects that we have applied to all the shots, namely "Vignette" for the main film and "Old film" for the titles.
For the titles themselves we originally wanted to write on the sleepers themselves and move the camera along the tracks to achieve a sense of continuity. However due to difficluty in achieving a good, stable shot and the negatevely affecting position of the sun at the time of filming, we resorted to placing planks of wood on one of the trains present at the location, this adds a sense of continuity into our film.
