Credits and titles

Titling informs the audience about the distribution

company, productions company, as well as Actors
and directors.
The titling sequence of a film offers indicators of the
films plot and offers implications into
professionalism of film. The toping credits are often
the first clue you have to a films theme and tone.
Typography

The arrangement of the typography Is significant

as it should guarantee an aesthetic appeal but at
the same time, it should blend within the opening
sequence of the film so that the audience are
more focused on the cinematic result, rather than
the font itself, so they become easily engaged
into the film and less engaged in the credit
aspect.
The art of typography develops into a
communication device, so whatever the style of
the typography a film has included in their title
sequence, will allow the audience to
 Choosing the typography

In order to form an appealing title sequence, the typography must follow

certain rules:

The typography should stay the same throughout, as the confusion of

the sudden change in textual appearance will provoke a less persistent
fluency.
Fonts such as Times, New Roman, courier and Comic Sans must be
avoided because the extensive usage of this font can the hinder creative
vision of the film
Typography must be unique, not copied from other films, especially the
big Hollywood blockbuster movies such as spider man or Pirates Of The
Caribbean. Films like those rely on the typography as a form of
Psycho
The title sequence in psycho adheres to the
thriller genre due to the harshness of the
black and white colour scheme used on the
title psycho, creating tension and suspense
as we can infer fro this that the psycho in
Psycho is perceived to bring danger to his
character.
The rest of the credits appear on screen
through the transition of minimalistic bars.
The bars splice through the credits at a fast
pace in which the movements are aggressive,
thus connoting an aggressive nature from the
film. The bars cover over the credits whilst
the transition happens, which creates this
idea of concealment. The bars are sharp, with
no signs of edges, hence this artistic
formation suggest that there will be a lot of
sharp tension.
Se7en
Jolts, thuds, tremours, vibrations starting to
act on the credits in synchronization with
the non diegetic theme.
The black and white titling explores the
clinical theme.
It introduces us into a darker world, as the
short story told in fragments and vignettes,
following the hands of an od man as he
makes entries in his diary alongside
clippings from books, self-developed
photographs, and found images and
objects, giving the audience an intimate
look into the mind of a serial killer
obsessed with religion and, more to the
point.
