Summary of Findings- Titles&Credits

Summary of Findings

• Credits over action draw attention away from them and let viewing continue relatively undisturbed
• Credits on a black screen look more sinister, perfect for our genre
• Placement/order of titles and credits vary from film to film. There aren't any set rules about where they should come
• Actors names don't usually appear for our type of genre
• Music creates atmosphere, orchestral music adds tension or low hum adds a more sinister atmosphere
• Colour/font style have a larger impact than I thought as they are an element that can add personality to the titles and credits
