Art of the Title Sequence

Coraline
In today's Media lesson we were told to pick a still grab from a film, I chose the film Coraline. In the title sequence, the titles were in white and orange stitching on a brown/orange background. the border at the end of the screen was a pattern that looked like a table cloth, or a curtain. In the beginning of the opening title sequence, the first titles mentioned was the production company Focus Features and the other companies in association with Focus Features. The next titles to appear was the name of the film Coraline followed by 8 of the cast members. The background then changes from the orange/brown background to moving motion. In the clip, we see a doll flying in from the window and later being disattached and recreated into a new doll. While this is all happening, titles are still in motion. Lead animators are the next titles to be shown followed by, the concept artist, art directors, storyboard supervisor, editors, visual effect supervisor, music e.c.t, until the producers are shown and a man who wrote the novel, last is the writers and directors. The production company and cast members were shown on the plain background, whereas everyone else were shown during the recreation of the doll in the moving motion. Many different types of shots were present, for example, a wide shot of the doll on the table, a long shot of the doll floating away and a close up shot of the doll being disattached. The title sequence appeals to me as it caught my eye in the still grabs. The colours were very ordinary and plain, but it matches and links to the film. The part where I saw the animations were very interesting to watch and I liked how it liked from the titles to the music.
