Different Music
We asked Christopher Higgs to compose music for our opening, he created 2 different pieces, each creating a very different feel to the movie opening.
Click here for the post on Zoe's blog with the 2 different movies, and our audience's opinions.

Change of Name
We decided to change the name of our movie from Morning Coffee to Mug Shot as we thought that Morning Coffee was a very bland and boring name especially as it was a thriller, in addition to this Coffee isn't a running theme in the movie, it is how Sophia dies, but other than that it doesn't make much sense.
\
We thought that Mug Shot stuck to the fact that Sophia dies from her coffee and the mug smashes in the opening, but it also acts as a pun with a criminal mug shot which would appear if the rest of the film was to be made.

Costume Design by Kelly Stone
Make-up by David Kingsley
Production Design by Emma Sherry
Music by Christopher Higgs
Editor Zoe Ellis
Director of Photography James Cousins
Executive Producer Marcus Ponds
Produced by Zoe Ellis
Directed and Written by Jessica Olson
With our credits some with be black and some will white as neither colour works well on its own, although credits aren't meant to be focused on, having them just blend and merge in with the background we found wasn't very pleasing to look at. Therefore each credit has been strategically colours and placed according to the background, no credits will cover the actresses so it doesn't distract and block the audience from the film.

Font
The font we've decided to use is 'Stainy' for the main title as it looked feminine and to us look like lipstick strokes, running with the lipstick occurring throughout the film, we found this linked to Sophie's character well.
We wanted the rest of the credits to be a different, but similar font to the main title font as we wanted 'Morning Coffee' to stand out. The 2 fonts below we thought were sill feminine. but we wanted the font not to be massively angled/in italics. The Merienda font is the favourite so far.
