Every movie needs a title animation, it is usually the last thing that audiences will see as the trailer ends and of course it is the aspect that promotes the film. So because of this i thought that it would be a good idea to look into title animations of other films to get an idea into what they do and the typical conventions of them all.
I decided to do this as i know that i need to show the name of my trailer in a effective way so that it is memorable and also something that audiences can be interested in it.
As you can see above i found a video that has a large variety of film title animations from various different films made. They are normally around 3-5 seconds in length. In each the title is clearly visible in all and the theme of the film is always visible from the end title animation.
As you can see from the short GIF above one title animation that i very much liked was the title animation for the film "insidious". What makes this animation more appealing and effective is that it is so simple. It is simply just red text over a black background that flashes just ever so slightly. When looking at it i am already pulled to having my own title animation look something like this because it looks more unnerving and creepy and is not overdone.
The star was GIF for their title animation is also something that i very much liked. It is a little more complex then then the insidious one and had more animation to it making it a little more intresting and captivating.
From here i will try and create my own title animation. I hope to create something that goes with the overall narrative of the film and also try to make it fit in with the trailer and also the title animations.
