Dear Reader,
In the video ''watching'' Kyle Cooper talks about what makes a good title sequence. He admitted to including a set expectation, so that the audience forgets about everything else that is happening around them or in their minds.
Moreover, he went onto talking about the movie 'Seven'' in which he discussed what is important about the fonts used, he stated that it was important to use a handwritten font as well as using typography to his advantage to set an overall tone.
In the ''Dead zone'', Cooper used simple typography as well as ''great mysterious music''. Its evident that each movie has a different typography style and what creates the overall theme, that's how each movie differentiates. He then continued into ''to Kill a Mocking Bird'' which he went onto stating that it encapsulated the main characters obsession, the marbles distorted the background which created a contrast and the typography was integrated.
The title sequences become important for the studio as they contain prolonged snippets of information, which give away some story from the overall plot.
Overall, the way the film opening can attract the audience is through typography which captivates the audiences attention as it takes up the whole of two and a half minutes of the intro. It can also attract an audience through the effective pick of a soundtrack which should contribute to the chosen genre of the movie, like Cooper stated the ''Dead zone'' had great mysterious music which added to the effect and the atmosphere was created at the very start.
