Hey Blog!
It has come to my attention that providing proper credit sequences in my film opening is vital to my success. You know what that means; more research! Let's get to it!
I will be using the same films as my most recent research.😙
First up is Smile.
In this video, the credits are all displayed in the same color; red. Throughout the film, the color, red, is seen in a multitude of things. This color represents evil, and danger. So, having the credits all in this color add on to this factor. Moving on, the first credit is the company. Obviously, my film opening won't have this, but it will have the producer, director, etc. There is really nothing unique about this opening, but the transition to the movie title is very well done. It displays a zoom in to a woman's eye and it transitions to the title. Overall, what I noticed is the style of the credits is not random, it keeps the theme of the movie consistent.Now, let's talk about Longlegs. Please only pay attention to the credits!
Finally, let's discuss Nosferatu. It feels like I have talked way too much about this film!😹
This is an image of the title shown in the beginning of the movie.
Interestingly enough, the only credit in the opening is the film title. It appears after a transition from a camera tilt seemingly going into the ground. Again, the style of the text is relating to the context of the film. The font is to show the film is not set in modern times.This is an image of the credits displayed at the end. Unlike my film opening, there will not be a plethora of credits like this movie.However, I have to give them credit because it did stick to the black and white style like the beginning movie title. Overall, these credits aren't achieving anything new, but they did relate to each other by sticking with the same technique.
So, what I've really taken away from this research and analysis is that the credits must relate to the context of the film, and resonate with the theme of the film.
Until next time, blog!
