In a general thriller film, the title sequence is to push the viewer onward, into the main part of the story. It provides the hook that drags the audience in. Without it, people will lose interest quickly and this makes getting it right essential.
While the specification requires us to have some opening credits, we plan to do them in a very subtle way, to detract as little interest from following the main story as possible. We want the audience to be fully immersed in the excitement of our thriller and I personally believe that the title sequence should only add to that key immersion. We plan to do this by making the credits in a dark colour that barely stands out from the background. We also want to make themfairly small so as not to take up the entire screen. We hope that this will provide us with the effect we are after.
We also need to decide what information would be appropriate for the introduction. We need to provide information which covers all of our staff members but we don't really need to list all of our jobs. This is a minor detail we will cover more in the editing section.
