Art of the title

Art of the title is a website that posts and analyses all types of different film and television opening sequences from around the world. The website lets people post their own title sequences and explain them. I found watching the other peoples openings very useful and was inspired by quite a few of them.  Two of the videos really stood out to me, Rubicon and Vertigo.



  VERTIGO
                                                                 



















The opening to Vertigo clearly presented the genre, it set the atmosphere and the way the titles were included worked extremely well.








                                                                          RUBICON

















The opening to Rubicon was exceptionally good, to me it looked completely professional. I found it really clever how the numbers and dates and times mixed together and how the yellow highlighter took it form one credit to the next whilst connecting clues, which gave a clear idea of the genre. However i think they would have been marked down for the fact the films title was so near the end as in a normal opening sequence the title is at the beginning/middle
