Sherlock Holmes
One of our main influences in the post-production editing of our film, was that of text messages which were used in 'Sherlock Holmes'. The mysterious on-screen messages were used as a narrative voice.
Above is an image from Sherlock Holmes, demonstrating the on-screen messages. |
Film journalist Michele Tepper commented on this new development with the technological age below:
"Now, we’re used to seeing extradiegetic text appear on screen with the characters: titles like “Three Years Earlier” or “Lisbon” serve to orient us in a scene. Those titles even can help set the tone of the narrative - think of the snarky humor of the character introduction chyrons on Burn Notice. But this is different: this is capturing the viewer’s screen as part of the narrative itself."
