Title Research - Stephen

Se7en


• The sound is parallel to the actions that are happening and are in time with the credits.


• The titles are placed into areas that are not being used and then the shot will move to cover the text.


• The font and text flicker and distort changing constantly. As well as this it is sharp and gives the impression of a sadistic and creepy film.


• Most of the time the font is kept in a black screen to start with before changing to an actual film clip which allows the title to be read, but then makes it harder for the audience to see.




here you can see the change in distortion to legible text.

• The extracts in the background only shows either extreme close ups or distorted views of things so that we, the audience, have to keep guessing at the mystery of the bigger picture and get a full view.

• The images are parallel to the font as they both give strange and distorted views to the audience.

8 Million Ways to Die



• The titles are always across the frame and cover up what is happening in the background.



• The colours stay the same so that it is not disjointed, they also represent a law enforcement colours to help give away some of the story.


• The font looks hand-written which makes it look as though it had just been written down and then used by the law again enforcing the impression of the law.




• The way the film follows the car while giving more information helps solidify the idea that there is a large crime element to the film and that the law will be involved.


• Parallel music to match the thriller genre.

Terminator 2


• The flames give an idea of the story and what will happen later on.



• The font matches the forcefully images and parallel sound.


• The sound enforces the metal and flame noises.

• The titles always emerge from fire, relates to the movie.

• The terminator robot emerges from the fire with the music getting louder until it clamps down.


• The titles always draw the audiences attention due to their large and controlling font.
