Title Sequence

In class in our group, we analysed the film opening for 'The Roommate' and filled in the sheet we have taken pictures of and shown below. We answered questions on where the title nearly always appears we also answered questions on film titles such as what fonts are used and time it takes to go from production company to distributors.The production company is usually the first thing we see at the beginning of a movie. this could include the logo of the production company. The distributors are then shown after it. If there are A-list actors/actresses they are usually shown before the title of the movie however 'The Roommate' doesn't have A-list actors or actresses so the movie title appears before the names of the actresses and actors. After the title there is usually the supporting actors and then all the main people involved in the production process, e.g. music, casting director, costume, music, editor, producer, writer. Below is the company ident used in 'The Roommate'. This appears before anything else.
