Title sequence research
Title sequences are at the start of a film and are placed
there to give the audience an understanding to who was involved in the
production, distribution and exhibition of the film. They usually last two to
three minutes and give the audience their initial impression of what the movie
is going to be like. So thus the reason why title sequences need to be so
impressive. A title sequence can look however the director wants it to but
normally it reflects the movie in some way. For example the title sequence for
a horror movie is likely to have very little colour if any strong hints of red
which is usually associated with danger, death or blood.
Because the title sequence reflecting the film it should put
the audience into the right mood for when the movie begins. If the audience were
watching a horror movie then there would usually be some tense music playing in
the background trying to make the audience feel tense. If a title sequence wasn’t
very good then the audience may not like the actual movie as much.
In conclusion to the research I discovered that our title sequence
should be fairly dark with a bit of red showing through and some tense music
playing constantly throughout.
