Title Research: Art of the Title Website


    This website is exactly what the name promises: The Art of a Title. In the picture above, I was looking through numerous title sequences to see if I could recognize them. Of course, I recognized Shazam, The Lego Movie 2, Spiderman into the Spider-verse, and more. This may not come as a shock, but I was able to recognize these titles BEFORE reading them. This is because of the tremendous amount of work these animators and illustrators put into each title. Titles are meant to be a visual representation of the movie or show you are watching. Just like companies have logos, films have titles! The website is sorted into different categories depending on who the animator or team that created the titles. I found that I could click on "Title Sequence" in general, and it would display every title. If I clicked on a specific name, it would give me a description of this designer, the titles that he/she created, and a summary of these titles. This website really allowed me to study the actual art as well as the description that went into thousands of titles !

Title Research: Jaws

Image
  From Art of the Title Website - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?
  The titles are displayed over a regular movie screen. This is one of the movies that I have seen where the titles role over the actual beginning 2 minutes of the movie. I found this super cool since it is exactly what I am doing. - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?
  The images prioritized in the sequence were actual shots of the movie. There was close ups of the characters, and shots and reverse shots between those who were in conversation. - What connotations do these images carry?
  These images actually don't carry a scary connotation, but the music does. The first scene shows a long shot and a point of view shot of someone swimming underwater. The music is the suspenseful jaws music that gets the audience creeped out. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? The outset lets the audience know what kind of show you are getting...

Title Research: Halloween

Image
From Art of the Title Website - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?
  The titles displayed here are the cast and credit names, such as "Directed by:". - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?
  The images that are prioritized here are actually semi- still pictures instead of animated ones. They include pictures of a crushed pumpkin that slowly starts to rise with each title until the pumpkin is alive and lit up through the eyes and mouth. The sequence slowly dims and zooms into the pumpkin until the screen is black and only the pumpkin eyes light the screen. - What connotations do these images carry?
  These images carry a scary connotation as well as set a theme for the entire movie. The movie's name is Halloween, so naturally, seeing a scary pumpkin come to life ensures the audience that this movie is exactly what it promises to be. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset?
  Like I mentioned before, the...
