Research: Opening Title 2

Previously I uploaded a post analysing Insidious, researching the typography and the transactions used in the opening scene to give me ideas for our opening to ensure it matches the genre of Supernatural Horror. I have also analyzed 'The Exorcism Of Emily Rose'  to gather effective research which I can used to help our opening film become successful, ensuring it links to our audience target and the right genre.

Here is the 'Exorcism Of Emily Rose' opening scene- (Only up to 2:00 minutes)


I love the effect used as it makes the text link to the idea of supernatural horror which is our genre. The text is clear and a reasonable size so it doesn't over power the narrative. The size shows the importance in the words and the meaning, connecting the audience more and showing them the main focus of the film. We want to create titles which make the audience see the importance and to create an impact on the audience without ruining, overpowering the narrative.















This opening sequence shows the stereotypical typography which links to the genre of horror due to the colour representing death and blood. The colour also stand outs and shows the audience it is important. The transactions are effective as a fade in effect is used to show a sense of mystery and ghost like atmosphere linking to super natural Horror. The credits are simple however they have font which isn't perfectly neat and not in line suggesting the text represents danger or tells the narrative of the film suggesting its not perfect or happy link to the genre of horror. I love the size of the title as it is not too overpowering or intense so the audience can focus more on the scenes and different shots shown so they don't get confused with the narrative and stick with the correct genre.
