Comparison of Juno to Own Opening Scene

Opening of Juno

In the opening of Juno, the main character (played by Ellen Paige) is walking through an animated town whilst drinking Sunny D. The title sequence is playing as she walks to the music 'All I want is You' by Barry Louis Polisar. It is similar to ours, Cain, as we also use a flashback (not shown in the above clip) to show what has happened in the past and how it has affected the present. We chose not to use animation in our opening scene as we wanted to make the atmosphere serious and tense which would definitely be ruined by animation. The main character in our film is also walking to a specific place, however, we did not make the walking take place throughout the title sequence as no one would have known what our film is about. We used flashbacks specifically for this reason; to help the audience understand the idea of the film.

Title Sequence - From left to right

Our title sequence is very similar to that of Juno as we used it as a guideline. However, we did not include some of the titles listed below:

- Other actors/actresses names
- Music supervisors
 - Production designer
- Director of photography
- Executive Producers

We didn't include these roles as we felt it might be too much to go through in two minutes. I think the roles we missed out were not as important and as the ones we did list and would not effect the overall quality of the title sequence. We decided not to include the names of other actors/actresses as the main two characters are the only ones that stood out in the opening scene s there was no need to list other names. The Music Supervisors title was not really relevant to the music we chose so we just included who the music was by.
