Titles

For the titles I want to have them as ‘scenes’. In the same way some films will use a block colour and then overlay the text over the top. This style and inspiration comes from director Wes Anderson whose title sequences are often regarded in their own right. This very definite and simple look helps the film have a overall cohesiveness. French new wave cinema of the 50’s and 60’s would use this stylized look also. Its also pushes the ‘novel/story book’ feel that his films seem to have, marking one section from another

Good examples of this style would be his films, Moonrise Kingdom, The Darjeeling Limited, Bottle Rocket, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Are all good examples of his style to titles and the colour palette he uses.

This style is definitely something I want to use in my opening sequence. Or at least consider
