- Creating a Title Sequence
- Unforfettable Movie Opening Sequences

Those are the links that you might think of having a quick look before starting to work on the title sequence.

You can find all useful information from those pages and use it for your works, just to quote some words I think that they are important, for me:

- " The opening title sequence of a film is that film’s opportunity to make a good first impression on you, the viewer. A well-crafted title sequence introduces the audience to the tone and theme of the film as well as the cast and crew." (Unforfettable Movie Opening Sequences)

- Saul Bass: “My initial thoughts about what a title can do was to set mood and the prime underlying core of the film’s story, to express the story in some metaphorical way. I saw the title as a way of conditioning the audience, so that when the film actually began, viewers would already have an emotional resonance with it” (Title Sequences from Saul Bass, the master of film title design)


What makes a successful title sequence designer?

- From Morrison, “I look for a nuance, a subliminal energy in a film that I can then work into an idea.” (Morison on Morison)
