PLANNING | OUR FILM TITLE CREDITS

15/10/14 | PLANNING | OUR FILM TITLE CREDITS

I went back to the Art of the Title to research how the professionals portray their credits in their openings to their films. We wanted to find out how they did them and what they included in the credits. We looked through many different examples, doing this gave us a variety of fonts and useful ideas for our credits. Some of the credits that caught our eye and that we could integrate into our credits were: Directed by, Editing Director, Producer, Music by, Film Director, the staring actors and our film name.

The order:

1.    Directed by….

2.    Produced by….

3.    Music supervisor

4.    Production Company

5.    Film title

The numbers portray the order in which we want to show our credits. Whilst researching it was clear that a lot of professional companies used varying fonts, for example

John SMITH

The text is also in the same colour to leave a professional touch and it makes it clear to the audience that this is a part of the credits.
