Opening Titles



The purpose of a title sequence is that they are designed to tell you the names of the people and organisations involved, which will normally follow a set structure and order. They set the scene, estalish characters and genre and narrative through- visual style of titles, use of sounds and transitions of titles.
There are several conventions in an order to the opening of a film:
  • Producer
  • Highest Billing
  • Director
  • Title
  • Actor
  • Cast
  • Crew
  • Final Name (Director)
Some films choose to intersperse titles with actions eg) Poseidon.

Others variate the normal rules of the conventions eg) Star Wars with an opening crawl.
