Structure Of Title Sequence


Structures of Film Openings are very essential  when creating any kind of film. There are four types of structures to a film opening however there are three basic structures which are: 

Discrete Title Sequence
A narrative opening
Credits over a blank screen


Discrete Title Sequence: Discrete title sequences are separately edited sequences that stand apart from the film opening. They are stylised and heavily edited, and they support nearly all of the opening credits and film title.
An example which shows a Discrete Opening  would be the film The Enemy Of The State (1998) or Arlington Road. Here is the opening for The Enemy Of The State:



An example which shows a narrative opening would be Panic Room:
