Film title conventions research

In our class each member was asked to watch the opening sequences of 3 films of different genres. We did this so that we could see if other films followed a similar sequence.

By doing this we found that most of the films followed a similar pattern with the film distributor being seen first and the director being last however is some occasions the director was in the last few credits and other occasions where the director wasn't  mentioned at all.
Also by doing the task we found that the majority of musicals tend to leave their credits till the end. for example hair spray.

The typical pattern for a opening sequence is,
  • Distributor information
  • Studio information
  • Main actors
  • Production team
  • Executives

This is our class research.




In my next post i will talk to you about film titles.
