Title sequence


Title sequence

Within every thriller the title sequence is a crucial part. This is because it must be something that stands out for the audience and keep them thinking for example in horror thrillers they are a number of colour schemes they use to match the film, they use colours such as Red with black to show a sign of evil and most commonly blood. These schemes as you can see are used a lot however with the title it needs to be able to tell a story within them and create an image for the audience and let their imagination take control and picture things that the title enables them to think of then when they see the film that imagination comes to life. Font is also something that need to stand out within the title because it also need to grab to audiences attention, so therefore they need to be big and bold but also with unique shapes to then so some titles may have a rough shape to them as seen with many Horror films because it must fit the whole theme of the film and not look out of place.

When it comes to naming the film a lot of film makers and editors try to think of a message within the film sometimes that will be portrayed so it keeps the people watching thinking because not a lot has been given away, we mostly see this in films with possession for example “The Conjuring” and “insidious” however some films go for something more obvious like “MAMA” were the main character is named in the title.

When it comes to naming our Thriller these are all things me and my group will all have to consider and think about carefully because it needs to be catchy and grab our audiences attention for it to be successful.
