Title Research: Art of the Title Website

 Hey guys so for this blog I'll be telling you about, Art of the Title, a website that focuses on showing opening title sequences for shows and movies. The website introduced me to a lot of movies I didn't know were out there, a lot of them were documentaries. While reading on them and watching their opening sequence I realized that a lot of them represented the theme of the documentary in one way or the other. Some documentaries did not, but instead tried to use the opening sequence as a way to guide the audience and set the tone for what they might see throughout the documentary. For the movies the opening sequence always fit the genre of the film, but also worked a lot with the sound. For many of the films they all had a sort of non-diegetic sound attached to it in order to create a kind of effect that matched the genre. For example thriller genres usually had an ominous ringing with them along with dark titles and very clear writing. Action movies on the other hand had were brighter and required me to pay less attention to it because of how bright and bold it was, the editing of the sequence was also much faster and the sound was more dramatic, the kind that happens in an important scene of an action movie.
