How to make a CUSTOM Doctor Who Title Sequence! (TUTORIAL)

[@Dyloneth]

Thanks for watching! This may not be the easiest to follow, but I do hope it helps you all in some way! If you do have any questions, leave them below and I'll try to answer them all! :)

[@metalsonic17]

I just downloaded the pack today and can't find the green screen TARDIS. Have you not added that yet or have I just not found it?

[@Dyloneth]

Should be under the name templates folder, if it doesn’t show in your downloaded pack check the Google Drive folder, and just download the file individually.

[@metalsonic17]

@@Dyloneth yep there it is. Right where you said it would be. Just wasn't an intuitive location

[@richardswanson3053]

You even did moving the letters to let the TARDIS fly through! That was the only thing I didn't know how to do!! Thank you so much!!!

[@Dyloneth]

You're welcome! Happy to help :)

[@Timeless_Omega]

You are an absolute legend. I can't thank you enough for addressing the invisible text on Blender, there's no overstating how much that was getting on my nerves. And a big thank you for all the work you've done with these titles in general, it's exceptional! 💙

[@Dyloneth]

Glad I could help! I knew quite a few people had issues with the fonts in the Blender project (even myself when trying to reopen it) so I had to get that clarified :)

Finally The Tutorial Is Here!

[@VeryClassyDemon]

Just found this tutorial when looking for how to make a title sequence... and I'm now crying due to Rose's theme 😭 Only about a minute and a half into the tutorial, but based on the comments, I'm excited to watch through it :3

[@tableprinterdoor]

Very useful video! Using this as an intro for a little series me and a friend are making explaining every version of the doctor lol

[@thevfxmancolorizationvfxex4051]

I'd love to see you do a tutorial on how to make our own logo at the end of the titles

[@Blox248]

Got the actor names looking fine, but struggling to get the episode/written by/wirter name to look right. A tutorial or instructions for making that look accurate would be great

[@Dyloneth]

I would just recommend looking at a still of the text from one of the actual sequences (I have all the broadcast versions in the pack) and just eyeballing it, all I do is just place the text and add a slight drop-shadow behind it. The specific fonts you need are listed in the pack as well :)

[@nikohatbot]

okay ive never used blender before or any 3d software in my life i hope all goes well

[@nikohatbot]

is there any way you can show us how to turn the image sequence into a video without adobe cc? nothing is working for me and the blender video editor doesnt seem to have support for transparent background videos

[@Dyloneth]

@nikohatbot I would recommend looking up online how to make transparent video, as well as how to import it for whatever editor you’re using. It’s hard for me to give an answer since there’s so many different editors, and they all require different steps.

[@Zenghilios]

15/10 video bro! Quick question, if I wanted to change the colors of the main actor template, how would I go about doing so? Too afraid to touch things I don't understand yet 😅

[@Dyloneth]

@@Zenghilios I’ll be making an updated version of this because I have some newer templates coming out, I’ll go over it there!

[@Zenghilios]

@@Dyloneth oh hell yeah, thank you!

[@mustarddoctor]

Many thanks! I'm trying to work on something similar for the Series 5-6 Title Sequence, been working on a take in After Effects hasn't quite got the full desired effect so may switch the names to Blender (I always forget how to use it lmao)

This is a great help!! Why doesn't my file of the companion name have the blue glow around it like yours does? It has the colour mesh, but not the glow.

[@Dyloneth]

I only added the blue ray to the main actor file, but I’m working on a revamped template for both of them!

[@JSP_1147]

Edit: ignore question below, figured it out, now the issue is the wipe transition since it wont go in reverse despite the fact i set the wipe angle to -90° The issue in having now is how do i get the efect from 14:10 since that search bar wont show. All it says for me is effect controls

[@Dyloneth]

That's odd, maybe try different angles to see if it fixes it?

[@JSP_1147]

@Dyloneth tried loads of angles, it just deletes it. What other editing programs could be used instead of premier pro?

[@Dyloneth]

You can try Davinci Resolve, Vegas Pro, etc.

[@JSP_1147]

@Dyloneth sweet ill give them a try later today. Thanks.

I'm experiencing a problem opening up the main actor blender file. Companion opens fine. but the main actor just crashes the program. any ideas why?

Sorry to hear that, I'm not entirely sure why that would be happening. I'll have a look at the file and try reuploading it sometime soon and I'll let you know when I do :)

do we need to use premier pro specifically or will any video software work

[@Dyloneth]

Most should work, I just use Premiere so that’s what I showed in the tutorial :)

You sure can, I used to use Vegas and I’m 99% sure most of what I do here can be replicated in it :)

Yep! I haven’t personally used it but I’m pretty sure it allows for all the things I used :)

[@metalsonic17]

I'm having trouble importing the image sequence on capcut. I converted the render to mp4 but then it had a black background

[@Dyloneth]

MP4 doesn't support the alpha channel so it renders a black background. The only two video formats (that I'm aware of) that support transparency are MOV and AVI. I'm also not sure if CapCut supports transparent video in the first place. If it doesn't you can check around and see if there's "blending modes" or something of a similar name, and use the black video. Set the blending mode to "Screen" or "Add" and it should remove the black background :)

[@metalsonic17]

@@Dyloneth I'll try it with an AVI file

[@metalsonic17]

@@Dyloneth Blending modes? It has green screen stuff, but that deletes the blue transparent light. PS you were right about the transparent video. PPS the name rendered in a different aspect ratio to the main video, what should I do about that?

[@Dyloneth]

​@@metalsonic17 Just looked up a tutorial, if you add the name as an overlay, you can hit the "blend" button and there should be a "filter" option, that would emulate what I was saying. The name should have rendered at 3840x1920, and the video files are also 3840x1920. Could it be the project's resolution being different?

[@metalsonic17]

@@Dyloneth ok that worked. As for the aspect ratio, somewhere in the process the aspect ratio was just expanded. If I grow the video so Part of it is out of frame then it looks normal

[@DoctorWhoManiaProductions23]

My video background is black, I use a MacBook while editing on premiere pro

[@Dyloneth]

Strange, did you render it from Blender as a PNG sequence? You can still use it if it has a black background, by setting the blending mode to “Screen” or “Add” in Premiere :)

[@DoctorWhoManiaProductions23]

⁠@@DylonethI rendered it in blender and got each of the 75 frames as PNG files, where do I find the blending mode 😂

At about 12:25 i show you how to import the PNGs into Premiere. Once you get it imported as a single animated file, you should see the blending modes under “Opacity” in the Effect Controls window :)

Thank you so much for all the files and this tutorial. I managed to work out how to do the episode credit part myself, and here's the result of my first attempt (didn't mess around with doing the TARDIS-dodging letter in Blender, mind) - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpzWnqV-etFgnc0

[@Dyloneth]

Nice work! It looks really well done :)

[@Dyloneth]

My only comment would be to move the episode credit down a little bit, it feels pushed up a bit too high, and maybe make the episode title a bit smaller? Other than that it's wonderful!

[@MisterNeowl]

@@Dyloneth thanks, those pointers are definitely food for thought. Next time I may try to do the letter dodge in Blender - this time around was my first ever use of both it and Premiere Pro!

[@Dyloneth]

You did great for your first time! The TARDIS covering the names looked flawless, I'm really impressed with them :)

[@MisterNeowl]

@@Dyloneth again, thanks. I found the perfect frame to insert the green screen TARDIS, resulting in it looking quite seamless.
