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.
