The document discusses different ways of titling a film and analyzes the titling of three films. It suggests titling options like bold colorful titles that change as the film begins or titles with animation. Effective titling captures the audience and sets the tone. The analysis found titles typically last 20-30 seconds over background images to set the scene. Font sizes are large and readable while colors change with the scene. Production companies are shown first typically followed by the title and actors/director. Titling transitions like fading and includes chilling intensifying music.
2. Titling Filmed The titling could be filmed in many ways, it could be filmed as a big bold title in weary colours, it could be filmed as the film will be beginning and the title appears in dark colours and also the title could appear to have animation added to it where it could change font and colour as the film begins. The aim will be to capture the audiences or viewers into the movie and understand the title and also get a better picture and understanding of the film through the title. Any effects that will be used on the title will emphasise on the movie we will be creating. For example if the title dissolves into and out of the scene then it will emphasise on how our movie may relate to the supernatural of the movie, how “The Unknown” dissolves in and out of the film. The title will be key and have a major effect on the film and it is important the title is produced at a high level.
