Forget the Film, Watch the Titles!
Ever since I can remember, I’ve always appreciated and enjoyed creative intros and title sequences to movies. In fact they set the tone for how good or bad the movie will be.
I recently came across a site that’s dedicated to putting together the most stunning and creative film title sequences.
Forget The Film, Watch the Titles, is my current favorite site of the day!
What they’re about:
You know what they say about first impressions. That’s why both Hollywood and independent studios spend valuable time and resources to create the most appropriate main title sequences for their films. At its very best, a title sequence is a self-contained hybrid that combines several moving image techniques – film, animation, cg – to introduce a film.
On SubmarineChannel, we love a good main title. That’s why we started this online collection in 1997 of the most stunning and original film title sequences. Some are engaging and wildly entertaining, some are funny, exhilarating or simly deadly beautiful. Some are oozing with visual treats, while others hit you hard with their bold and audacious style.
Anyone else liked this? Sweeny Todd, what a way to start a movie!
There goes my afternoon!
