The type of font used was a normal font in capitals. The font was also the colour of red which was also dripping throughout the title sequence as it went along. This could be used to say that the genre of the film Cabin In The Woods is a horror film and we know this because of the title sequence as blood represents violence and violence represents horror. Also, from the long list of the title sequence, we can tell that the film is a high budget film. The font is seen in the bottom right corner. This is because the type of title sequence is a moving image title sequence. As it's a moving image title sequence, behind the font is the film being played. We're introduced to the main characters of the film as main characters are usually the ones who open up the film. What I like about the title sequence is the effects the title sequence is written in with the font colour being red and it dripping, what I like is that it's a very smart way of having the genre given to the audience through the title sequence. Why I chose this film is because I watched the trailer for the film and found it very interesting.


The second title sequence is The Simpsons, Season 26, Episode 1.

The title sequence involves the features of:


 



     
  • The Simpsons (Name of the TV drama)
  • Created by Matt Groening (Credits)
  • Developed by James L. Brooks, Matt Groening and Sam Simon (Credits)
The type of font used in The Simpons bubble writing. From this, we could be able to tell that the TV drama could potentially be a comedy TV drama.
