Comments from designer
• “Animation is very closely related to the dance. To be
aware of this is to realize the film form is choreography in
time, space, sound and light. In our films we try to
develop as many styles and approaches as the
opportunity provides… My role in these films is writer,
director and producer but Kurtz & Friends is far from a
one man studio, it is a group effort of incredibly talented
and dedicated artists.”

Analysis of Two Title
Sequences
• Mission Impossible
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFtHB4RevLM
It’s a fast Action packed film as you can tell from the title
sequence. It seems like an intense film and serious.
• The Incredible Hulk
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vvDRvKBUZY
It starts off just like any other marvel comic film except that it
usually involves superheroes and from this title sequence it
makes you think the main character is a villain from all the
“Danger” signs and from the sequence having a mysterious
green glow.
