This document discusses title sequences for short films, noting that it likes the simple white font titles used at the beginning of the film "Undressing My Mother" which clearly displays information like director and actor names. It also notes that another film, "Farewell Packets of Ten", uses a minimal title display during its introduction that pans from a table to the characters. The document concludes that these simple title designs common in documentary shorts clearly present information while not giving away specific details about the genre.

2. Genre related films…
Undressing My mother…
This Documentary Drama is a short film that relates to the idea and creation of our
short film “Collision”. I particularly like the idea of using plain and simple white font,
especially like the examples taken from the beginning titles of Undressing my mother.
This way it delivers information such as directors name, actors names and most
importantly the name of the film.
Also the fact that the text stays in the
bottom right hand corner of the
screen, with a voice over of the
protagonist makes it more appealing.
These titles are present for a couple of
minutes at the beginning of the film.

3. Farewell packets of 10…
Farewell packets of ten is another
genre related film, consisting of 2
characters throughout. In terms of
titles there is a bare minimum of the
film title shown during the
introduction to the film, with a pan up
from the table to the two sitting
characters.
This is a nice simple way to present
titles, and is a common convention
found in documentary short films. It
allows the information to be displayed
clearly using the white font, also giving
no specific genre ideas away.
