This document analyzes the title sequences of three films: The Shining, Se7en, and Reservoir Dogs. It finds that all three films include the studio logo, director, film title, and key or other cast members in their opening credits. The order that most commonly appears is studio logo first, followed by the film title, director, producer, key cast, and other cast. Based on this analysis, the author concludes that their own title sequence should include at least the studio logo, director, film title, and cast members, with that standard order.
