PLANNING- Task 1- Analyse titles and credits ( Ali Demirkan ) ( 1 )


Image result for Napoleon Dynamite

Name of film: Napolean Dynamaite

Typeface/ Font used: Different fonts are used throughout the sequence, for example handwriting is used when the titles are shown of food, and types bold font is used when it shown on the ID card, types is used when it appears on the lozenge pack as well.

Use of transitions and/ or effects: The sequence is simply edited with not many effects, which allows the music and the video to create a smooth and easy to watch title sequence which matches the genre,. The editing is slow, with quite long shots, to match the calm pace of the music. There area a few deliberately out of focus shots that became in focus, such as the book receipt.

Use of colour: The title sequence uses light colours such as; light blue, yellow, light green to suit the genre because its comedy the title sequence colours suit the genre of the film. However, if the genre of the film was horror then they wouldn't of used light colours, they would use dark colours. In addition, the use of light colours attract the audience because it makes the background brighter.   

Pace and movement of the titles: Each title stays on the screen for 6 seconds each, with a 3 second gap between each title appearing. We would use this timing for our own title sequence.

How do they integrate or contrast with the action behind them?: This then suits the action because its a 3 minute title sequence and they gathered many things due to the 6 seconds each, with a 3 second gap between each title. Therefore, the audience understands the concept of the film.


 Overview of why you like the title design in the sequence?: We would use this title sequence as an inspiration to my work in the way of not using actors and just focusing on the titles in a creative way. Also, i love the way there is only one stop type in the title sequence and that the point of view shot. This makes me feel like I'm in the scene as though i was looking at the objects.
