Post-Production: Creating the Ending Quote

As our film comes to an end, the narrator leaves the audience with the final line: 'don't waste your youth growing up'. We wanted to make this line impactful and therefore decided to have the quote appear on screen behind the protagonist as she walks across the frame. To achieve this we used Premiere Pro. Firstly we created a text box to go across the screen, and selected a font that would look slightly like graffiti. We then used the effects control to create a 'mask path' for the text to follow. We moved the footage along a frame at the time, the moved the text so that it followed behind the character. This resulted in the text appearing as Molly walked across the frame.
