Danny Yount Case Study
1.
2. So who is Danny Yount?
As a self-taught designer, Danny Yount learned everything
he knows the hard way. It was the work of Kyle Cooper that
lead him in the direction of main title design.
"It wasn't until I heard about what Kyle Cooper was doing
with Imaginary Forces that I was able to get a clear sense
of what I wanted to do," Danny told Desktop in an interview,
"From that point on I made it my goal to design main titles.
To me it was like gravity – it seemed to be the most logical
thing to do. I spent a year building a reel and refining my
skills."
Yount is now one of today's top main title designers for film
and television working with Cooper at one of the most
prestigious main title firms in the industry: Prologue.

3. What has Yount done…
Before Prologue, Yount served as a creative director at Digital Kitchen where he designed
the Emmy award-winning main title for Six Feet Under. His main title for The Grid was
nominated for an Emmy. His 1960's-style animated main title sequence for KISS KISS
BANG BANG calls into mind the best work of main title design legend Saul Bass and was
nominated for an AD&D award. His most recent work includes the visually spectacular
main title sequences for Iron Man, RocknRollaand The Book Of Eli…

5. A Sequence by Yount
The Invasion (2008) http://www.watchthetitles.com/articles/00156-The_Invasion
6. The Invasion (2008)
As soon as the title sequence begins the audience are thrown into a blast
of stars, planets and meteors. This has been used by Yount to signify the
genre of the film. The space feel is cleverly converted into a blaze of
different cells and organisms which could connote possible narratives of
the film including tampering with cells to create something new.
The typography used in this sequence is fairly small and insignificant
through the duration of the sequence. Yount may have done this to draw
the audiences attention away from the titles and focus their attention on
the background. The font used has a futuristic look to it (rounded edges,
crisp and slick) which could imply the period of time or place in which the
film could be set (future/space).
The music used is very heavenly and could be considered as unworldly
which could indicate that this film is set on another planet or about
possible visitors to earth.
Overall this sequence gives audiences watching a clear understanding of
the key information needed to what the film and helps them to understand
possible themes or issues raise through the film.
7. Another Sequence by Yount

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005) Kiss_Kiss_Bang_Bang
8. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005)
The sequence opens with a ‘Saul Bass’ style which could indicate when
the film is set and what period of time (1960’s).The colour (including black,
white and orange) are very slick as the contrast each other creating this
amazing visually world. This, again, could represent the era in which the
film is set.
Images of buildings and ‘highway’ bridges could identify the urban city (i.e.
New York) in which the film is set. There a lot of men with guns featured
throughout the sequence which could show the possible themes or events
in the film but could also identify the genre (crime/thriller). There are splats
of orange and white which could represent blood shied or death which is
featured in the narrative.
The typography used in the title sequence is very small and sharp which
show the seriousness of the plot and the idea that there are no jokes
throughout. The type is small for most of the sequence which could mean
that Yount want the audience to focus on the imagery.
Overall this is a slick sequence that goes hand-in-hand with the rest of the
film, and gives audience a head up of the key information needed to enjoy
the movies.
