Title Research: The Final Destination

     I went on Watch the Titles website to choose a thriller movie. I wanted to go on Art of the Title website, but couldn't because my computer wouldn't let me. When I got on the website, I clicked on the feature films and looked for a thriller movie. I found Final Destination and decided to watch it. When the movie starts the title immediately pops up with blood. The music sounds like music you would hear in a video game. The names of the actors that played the main characters showed up first. The font of the letters seem basic and all the names are uppercase. Then the names of who it was casted by showed up. The names were all uppercase, but the heading "casting by" was lowercase.
     Then came the costume designer, associate producer, visual effects supervisor, music supervisor, co-producer, edited by, production designer, director of photography, executive producers, produced by, written by, and directed by. The whole title scene has this x-ray effect. Just by looking at the title scene, you can see that the movie is going to be about a car accident. At the beginning of the scene it shows how a ladder from the side a building went straight into someones skull. Then it shows a person getting a pole through the skull. It shows a van blow up and then a person get cut into pieces by a wire. An x-ray of broking bones is shown and then one of the bone pieces turns into a car. It also shows a person reaching for a knife, but then the knife fell of the counter and stabbed the person straight on the chest. A skull with nails is then shown and then lights blow up then transitioning into a bunch of broken glass flying everywhere and an x-ray of a person with headphones that fell out. A hall blows up and then transitions to an x-ray of a skull. It then goes into a spine and makes it seem like its a rollercoaster.
     At the end of the title scene a bus crashes into the letters to finish it off. The title scene is kind of give bits and pieces of what happens in the movie. You can already tell what the movie is about by what's on the title scene. The title scene shows that there is a lot of things that are going to go on in the movie. The title scene was suspenseful and exciting.
