If needed, fill in the words with black or white to make it readable. Size: depending on the shot and what is going on in each scene. Purpose – To show who was in charge of what and who was in the film. the title is most of the time less important for the people watching. Working title: Rabbit Hole Sweets How will the titles (the words) enter and leave the screen? By fading or dissolving in/away, sometimes staying in a shot. How long will each title be on the screen before it disappears? Depending on the length of the title, make sure the viewer can read it.

Title Research: Watch the Titles Website

Watch the Titles is a site that lets people view title sequences of movies, shows, and video games. This is helpful due to the fact that I could analyze and find inspiration for a title sequence. This source is reliable because it does not require any sort of paywall to access the site. Due to the diverse selection of title scenes, it was clear that I could get inspiration from the title designs and get creative from them. There were many films, from obscure to famous. This will really help due to my lack of knowledge of movies that are not mainstream. As someone who is not that interested in using their free time to watch movies, it is very convenient to use this site to efficiently analyze opening scenes in films. The website is also easy to navigate and use, despite being new to it. It will allow me to search for movies in the same genre as the opening sequence I will be doing. Overall, I plan to use this website until the very end so I can conjure up a solid opening sequence.
