What Makes A Good Title Sequence
- Kyle Cooper is accredited as the man who single handedly revitalised the main title sequence as an art form.
- His 1995 title sequence for Seven was hailed by the New York's Times magazine as one of the most important design innovations of the 1990's.
- He thinks that the fact that a title sequence dovetails seamlessly into the film properly is important. He also believes that a great title sequence sets an expectation for the rest of the film, he says 'it makes you forget everything else and makes you just want to be there'.
- In the film Seven the font is important as it portrays the character, the character in Seven is a serial killer who keeps a journal and this is linked with the title sequence being hand written.
- He likes the title sequence in Dead-zone because of the simple typography ad simple music.
- For To Kill A Mocking Bird, he says he likes it because of the photography, horizontal line contrast, the marbles distorting the background and it encapsulates a characters obsession.
- By the term 'story based' he means a back story and clear metaphor.
