Research-Title Sequence

The Fault in our Stars Title Sequence:
All the writing is in a white font

0.02: FOX 2000 PICTURES PRESENTS- This has been placed in the centre of the screen to show its importance. As it is in the centre, it allows the audience to see it straight away so they understand who the productuion company is. The words are also shimmering to give off the effect of stars. Lasts approx (0.03secs)

0.05: IN ASSOCIATION WITH TEMPLEHILL ENTERTAINMENT- This has been placed slightly to the side as there are pictures on the screen to make it more appealing.
0.13: A FILM BY JOSH BOOME- This is brought in with a transition of a swipe. It is brought in behind a rocket to show more effect and create the feel of space and stars.

0.22: AN IMPERIAL AFFLICTION- This twists around with a book. This is significant because within the film the characters discuss this book. This writing is in a simple black font as the book is white so it makes it stand out.
0.25: STARRING- The writing changes back to white. It also comes on a page of the book, so it is folded in as the page is turning.
0.28: SHAILENE WOODLEY- The writing turns onto the screen and is once again 'twinkling' to allow the writing to fit in with the stars. 

Wild Child Title Sequence Analysis:
Sound
The music starts off very calm and smooth while the shot shows that Poppy is asleep. When suddenly Poppy realises that she needs to be up and she jumps out of bed. When she does the music changes to modern and upbeat. 
Mise en Scene and Representation.

Blue sky and blue sea is the first thing the audience sees, this can represent that everything is perfect. 
The next shot is of the girl sleeping. Her room seems very bright and airy also representing everything is perfect however this changes at the end of the opening sequence. Again it shows her sleeping again but this time the room seems darker and more gloomy. 
Close up of calendar shows the audience a date with explosion stickers around it and the girl panicking, this shows the audience something bad is going to happen today.
