The title sequence of Cain :

Slidely showing the shot types in other teen movies that are similar to the ones we have used in our teen movie.
It is evident that we have used similar shot types to other teen film openings. For example the first shot of a teen film opening is always an establishing shot which we have used for the beginning of our film. Then we found that the most commonly used shot distances were extreme close up, close up and the shot position used was birds eye. We incorporated all these shots within our film opening which I believe makes the opening scene more active rather than having to look at a certain shot distance over and over again.
Title sequences follow a strict order. The billing order is all about the actors and stars in a movie. If they are well known actors they go before the title because the audience are coming to see this film due to the importance and success of the actors in the film industry. The title comes after the actors who are popular. The title sequence includes the logo of the institutions involved in the production, finance and distribution of the film. This: advertises the company, establishes expectations in an audience and can be used as a symbol for the genre of the movie.
We have challenged some of the conventions and the title sequence in our opening of our film Cain. The reason being is we cut out some of the credits for example directors photography because we thought we all contributed to this as a group and that it wasn't important for our sequence. Most teen films have more colourful fonts when presenting the title sequence however we decided to keep it quite simple and bold because it matched our genre.
