Research into order of titles

 Order of titles research 

The standard order for opening titles are: Production company (distributer), Production company (producer), Filmmaker, Film title, Lead cast, Supporting cast, Casting director, Music composer, Associate producers, Editors, Production designer, Director of Photography, Executive producer, Production designer, Director of Photography, Executive producer, Producer, Writers and Director. 

My group and I plan on following this order in our opening title sequence. The reason we are keeping ours in the basic order is so its clearer and as our genre is Romantic Triller, we didn't feel the need to make our titles over the top.  

The Film Fear 1996 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6DEt1LYCUM)  shares the same genre of Romance Triller as our opening title sequence. This film has used the standard lay out for title order. The titles are simple and white, However the titles are too big in my opinion. The titles take up too much of the scene which takes the attention away from what's happening in the sequence. In my opening title sequence I want the titles to be smaller and less distracting as I want the audience to be focusing on what's happening in the sequence. The opening sequence for Fear is starts off with landscapes and stays this way for half the sequence. This allows the titles to be big as there isn't much to distract the audience from. The opening title sequence for Fear builds a good atmosphere and mood but doesn't make it clear or give away what the movie will be about.
