If we look at a more modern title sequence such as Cockneys VS Zombies (2012) the special effects are more advents and have a comic book feel. The text is very bold like in most zombie movies and has a worn feel to it.
If you look at another zombie movie such as Resident Evil Extinction (2007) which isn't considered old or new has a very play title as the text is small and white which doesn't follow the convention of a zombie movie.
If you look at I am Legend (2007) which might not be classified as a zombie movie, the text is very similar to that of Zombieland (2009). Both the title sequences have the text integrated in the environment, by this i mean that the text produces shadows and in Zombieland the text moves around if someone hits it. Looking away from special effects the text itself is (in Zombieland) thin but bold and is a blood read with a white outline, the names are bigger then the "description" e.g. directed by. In I am Legend the text is bold and white but bigger then that in Resident Evil and 3D.
This is a good, well-presented post. BUT you must make sure you make clear how YOUR film will be influenced by such research. I've looked for but can't see a post detailing your titles: the font (and any others tried out); positioning; order; names; language.
ReplyDeleteThis is an important topic. As it stands, your titles aren't in the right order; you need to make sure you've followed the convention with directors (auteur) especially. I've annotated your final cut with no music.
You need to have a post/s very specifically detailing not just the look of titles but the number, how long: see the titles tag and especially the post http://asmediafilmopening.blogspot.ae/2015/10/researching-film-titles-design-and-fonts.html
