What is the purpose of the title sequence?
- Establish the genre
- Capture the attention of the audience
- Title of the film
- Show the production company
- Introduces the characters
- Sets the tone of the film
- Introduces us to the locations
The titles are usually shown in this order:
- Producer
- Highest billing
- Director
- Title of the film
- Main actor
- Cast
- Crew (production designer, editor, music etc.)
- Final name (always the director)
The opening sequence is not always in this order and often varies from film to film. Parts are often left out in the opening titles and may only mention the producer, title and director. Other titles may mention more of the cast and crew and be much more detailed in who exactly made the film.
