- Production Company - “A Production Company Name Production.”
- Distribution Company - most likely to be an independent distributor that did not finance your film so will appear on its own. It usually is listed as “Distribution Company Presents,”
- The director’s credit tends to come right after this, labeling it “A Director’s Name Film.”
TYPES OF OPENING CREDITS:
Animated:Animated Opening Credits from 'Catch Me If You Can' which would be difficult for us to do.
Title Sequence:
Title Sequence from James Bond - Golden Eye, whereby the credits are incorporated into a separate sequence. To use this idea in our film, we would have to create a fully separate sequence of events that are not related to the storyline of our film, which could be potentially difficult and confusing to the plot.
Cold Open:
Ocean's Eleven demonstrates a Cold Open, which shows a part of the story pre-credits to hook the audience by creating a teaser. We could create a Cold Open for our film by showing time rewinding but not immediately reveal that the remote control is responsible, which would be the teaser for the film.
Minimalistic:
Title Sequence from 'Bunny Lake is Missing' which is a simple and minimal concept of showing credits. For our film, this could be done well with a lot of effort put into it but would perhaps be a little boring and be difficult to set the tone and theme of the film immediately.
Relative Theme:
As American Splendour is about a comic book creator, the title sequence is in a comic book format, giving an initial taste as to what the film is about. In our film for example, a similar idea would be to base the title sequence around a remote control, perhaps with credits on the buttons or on the TV.
