What Is The Purpose of A Title Sequence and Film Opening With Grid -

A good title sequence is made to prepare the audience of what they're about to watch. For example title sequences usually include:

- Scene and location introduction
- Genre clues / Introduction
- Music ( to set the tone )
- Voice overs ( to set the scene or plot )
- Character Introduction
- Title
- Opening Credits
- Idents

All of these features combined could both tell a story and set the scene at he same time. A creative and unique title sequence could also further intrigue the audience and whet their appetite to keep them watching further.

the purpose of the title sequence is also to let the audience know the title of the film ( which is usually placed in the middle of the sequence ) as seen in the title sequence bellow.

 

This Opening sequence does a good job at suspending disbeliefe in the viewer and keeping them intrigued by making them feel as though they are in the scene as a pose to watching it. The realism of the scenes used engages the audience by introducing them to the movie with things they can relate to and recognise.
