29. In looking at the roles mentioned in the opening titles of Spider-man I will likely
follow with using a similar style in my own product.
The actors are prioritised over the other roles as they are what the viewer sees
and has paid to see, so the main cast are all shown before moving on to other
important roles like Producers, Screenplay writers, Editors and the director.
Marvel is mentioned a lot, as this film is an adaptation of an original comic book
series and therefore the corporation is mentioned at the start and later on it says
“based on the original marvel comic book” to clarify that this is adapted from this
source material.
As my project will be fresh there isn’t a need for this, however referencing
influences subconsciously through particular shots in the genre I have chosen
may invoke curiosity in the casual viewer and gain attention for them to watch
on.
