 The font for the credits of my film are to be decided, however, I might use a more typewriter like font. Either that, or something that looks like old print. The opening credits will appear at the center of the screen, but will not take up all of the screen.  The title hasn't been determined either, however, I might go with something like "Holiday Intrusion" The font may look like this: HOLIDAY INTRUSION All captions will have a fade in fade out transition Titles will stay for about 3 seconds I will most likely be using a white and/or red font, depending on the background  The name of the person in charge will appear in all caps. It can be expected to look like this: directed by: V. GARCIA EUCEDA

I chose to research Watch the Titles because of the wide variety of title sequences on the website. The layout of the website makes it easy to browse through different title sequences. It even has a search bar, which makes looking for specific title sequences even easier. This website will help me complete my research on title sequences. I am specifically observing the elements and editing of a title sequence for my movie intro. I intend to analyze the order and placement of captions in a title sequence, special effects, and sounds. I'm also researching this website because viewing different title sequences will help me to create my own title sequence that blends into the film itself. This is essential to creating a quality film that looks like a whole production team created it. Title design is important, and it's necessary that it fits with the aesthetics of the film it represents. I am confident my decision to research Watch the Titles will help me achieve this.
