In a motion picture the opening credits are shown at the very beginning and list the most important members of the production. They are usually shown as bold text on a blank screen or static pictures, or sometimes on top of action in the show. There may or may not be accompanying music. For our opening titles we will have music and it will have text over an action shot. Opening credits since the early 1980s, identify the major actors and crew, while the closing credits list an extensive cast and production crew. When researching we came up with the most common mentions in the credits. so this influenced our credits as we wanted it to be realistic.
Here are some examples of opening titles from film Noir films. These were taken from the films Deadly "Kiss Me and Raw Deal. This supports my research of opening titles having moving backgrounds and bold fonts. Comments are closed.
