MAIN: Post 3: Research into Opening Sequence Designs

I watched the Kyle Cooper interviews part 1 and 2 and i have found out different things that they think about and what they think an opening title sequence needs to interest the audience. I noted down the main points that Kyle Cooper pointed out about opening title sequences:
- He said that the opening title in a cinema or theatre should draw the audience's attention to the film and make the audience want to watch the rest of the film and be intreiged in it.
-He also said that the font is important in the title sequence because it gives you an idea about the genre and storyline of the film. He said that in the sequence of se7en he used handwritten font because the main character is a murderer so it is carrying on the effect of the character for things such as threat notes.
-There are images that are used so it gives the idea of what the main character in the film is like, e.g jumpy images means that it is a mystery/ horror film.
-Shows specific images that are related to the film such as in the film se7en it shows images and clips of cells and skin which draws the attention of the audience.
-A good and very successful opening title sequence because it uses good photography which interests the audience, also it has good music and give a mysterious feel to it, all of these different things draw the attention of the audience and makes the film a sucess.
