Production Concept Unit: Title Sequence

So I had just spent an entire days working on a breakthrough with my title sequence. 

Just as I go to export and show off all my work, boom, exit. 

Be warned, Final Cut X has an autosave bug. As it's a new piece of software you have to wait for all these things to be fixed, so it's one of many and sometimes it doesn't save your work, and you can't even decide when it saves as you assume it's doing it for you. The way to tell if it's doing this apparently is to make sure you can undo the last action, otherwise when you next open you're project you'll find you'll be starting from scratch

It can be a really good piece of software but it can be a real pain.  :S

Here's what I've managed to salvage, it's only a test and it's a little rough because I rushed it in about an hour or so. Plus, the main title itself isn't refined yet and I need to add the right shade of blue I'm using. I'm keeping the main themes in mind and combining them to create a shot list and some ideas. They are: prison, corruption, technology, voyeurism, media control and globalisation.
