Title Research Blog: A HISTORY OF THE TITLE SEQUENCE - Opening Sequence

-

from co-creator Jaydon Smith

Greetings and Salutations!

Welcome to Media TL;DR the series where I break down my greatest projects so you can easily dive in and understand my original ideas. I'm your host Jaydon Smith! And Today's topic is on researching movie title sequences made by other creators. And today's Title is "A History of The Title Sequence" by From Form.

Titles Displayed

This film showcased all of the names of the creators of the title sequence, which is most definitely a unique take on titles since usually they give the names of the actors and main producers overall in titled form. But in this case, they highlighted the creators of the title and the name of the production company as a whole.

Images Prioritized

They prioritized modified and oversimplified techy fonts to portray the genre, as well as used pretty relaxing hand tools for creation and the like. The paper itself being influenced is also focused on since most of the text is printed on top of it. Which relates to another prioritized image, the items used to make the text. The objects like chalk and protractors are prioritized and give the titles a place to lay and be presented.

Genre Feeling

Seeing the text font gave me tech feels, and the features and charts gave technology vibes as well. While the texture is like board chalk, the implication and movements of the text feel like a scientific opening. The slicing of text presented in the film feels like a glitchy influence, which fits the theme of sci-fi.

Thats all!

That's it for this Title Blog everyone. I hope I made at least most of my descriptions and intentions clear. Thank you for reading! And until next time, stay cool and attractive.

I would like to first off thank Jaydon for putting in the effort to get permission for us to film at CCFL.  I would also like to thank Mr. Nick over at CCFL for giving us permission to film here in the first place! This project truly would not have been possible without him securing the space for us. Initial Set Scoping Now, we were originally told that we were going to utilize an auditorium primarily used for children's services and the church's private school. It had a beefy audio system, three beefy projectors, some PTZ cameras, and more. It was even large too. This was the first place we looked at, and we looked around to get familiarized with the space. However, after looking around, we were told that due to possible administrative conflicts with our church, this location would not be suitable for us to conduct our filming. However, another altern...
