The document summarizes research on title sequences for three horror films: The Conjuring, Evil Dead, and Sweeney Todd. It finds that the number of titles in each film's opening falls between 20-30, allowing time to credit the most important contributors while keeping the opening brief. It also notes that the types of jobs credited, such as actors, directors, producers, editors, are consistent across the three films researched. The work will use these findings to design professional title sequences that resemble those typically used in the film industry.

51. The titles and job roles
From the three horror/thriller movies opening sequences I have watched I
have gathered that the number of film titles vary between the number 20 to
30 staying in that range. This is probably because it allows for the most
important people to be mentioned first and for a shorter opening sequence
so the audience are allowed to get straight into the movie. If they mentioned
everyone that helped during the making of the film it would take more than
the couple of minutes that is reserved for the opening credits.
The variety of jobs that are used are nearly all the same in each opening
sequence. The actors and actresses, the directors, the producers, the editors,
the sound/music people, costume and makeup design, the writers, who did
the casting, who did the photography, etc. In each of the three movie
opening credits they all fall along the same line.
My work will strictly adhere to the findings I have gathered from this research
so it will be professional and more like the openings they have today in the
film industry.
