RESEARCH- What is the purpose of a title sequence BLOG POST 3


What is the purpose of a title sequence and film opening?

 

The purpose of a title sequence and opening scene is to set the tone for the rest of the movie and to intrigue the audience so they know what to expect. The opening scene sets a standard for the rest of the movie as it is often used to give away the context, narrative and genre and creates the tone of the movie before the movie actually starts.

The other purpose of the title sequence and opening scene is to introduce the Director, actors, producers and cast as well as introducing the characters. Different movies have different title sequences depending on the genre, i.e. horror movies would use graphic images and sinister music to show that the movie is a horror where as a comedy would use funny context based graphics/animations etc.
