What makes a good title sequence ?

- Creating the story in one metaphor. This makes the audience intrigued and gives them the slightest of glimpses of what is going to happen.

- The editing techniques have to be very effective. Transitions have to be put in the right places after cuts in-between scenes furthermore, this will contribute to the pace of the title sequence which will relate to what type of genre the movie is.

- The title may seem like the most important part of the entire sequence. It is to some extent as you have to make sure the title attracts the audience and is distinct. The font, colour and animation all make a title.

- Sound is also a vital factor in a title sequence. Whether it is up tempo or calm it helps the audience to identify what type of movie they are about to see.

To conclude the main idea of this is to keep the audience intrigued in the movie and the title sequence does this as it is the first imagery you see. To add to this there may be other factors which contribute to how good a title sequence is such as the budget.
