Analyse two title sequences

Spring Breakers:

This title sequence is very plain but very effective as it is on a blank black screen not inferring any clips of the movie. This therefore limits the target audience information on what the film is going to include but due to the fact that they have used letters that are customised to look like different objects in the film which can intrigue the audience. Furthermore the fact that the colours used to emphasise the text allow us to know that the target audience is aimed at young teenager girls which also contrast with the upbeat music being played while the titles are being shown.

This title sequence is very short due to the fact that it is a mainstream production as it does not include all of the actors at the beginning which is different to many other titles. It is also apparent that it is a animated title sequence as the font would have been edited to look an exact way to intrigue the audience and make it interesting.


Coraline:

This title sequence is very different in contrast to spring breakers as it starts to tell the story of the doll Coraline therefore giving away the main story line plot. This is a narrative title sequence due to this fact and is clearly not an stylized title sequence as it does not include current editing software techniques. Furthermore, it is a very interesting title sequence which includes a lot allowing the audience to be intrigued by all the information portrayed through the doll being created. While this is being done this is when the different titles are shown of the producers/ editors etc, which is an effective way to do it as it is not to distracting from the main focus of the  title sequence.

It is also a much longer title sequence then the first one I have analyzed as it is a narrative title it therefore has more to include and more to show about the film, the fact that it is a childrens films as well is that fact that they have to explain what is going on in the film so that they do not get bored of it.
