Analysis of a Title sequence


The purpose of the title sequence is to tell you the names of the people and organisations involved,title sequences will follow a set structure normally. 
The producers name id the first thing  to appear as they have overall responsibility for the planning and production of the film. The second thing to appear is the highest billing, this could be the actor  or the director, whoever is considered biggest at the time. 
The next hing to appear is the director, then  the title, actor, crew and then the final name which is ALWAYS the director. 

An example of an opening title sequence is Casino Royale 

The title sequence uses a lot of media language to establish the genre , character and theme of the film. The 007 number is shot into a 7 of hearts playing card, making reference to the title. Th gun being used shows that there will be a lot of  crime in the film.
