A little bit of Title Design



Found this really good video on 'A Brief History of Title Design' it shows some really cool title sequences. 




It made me remember the first time I started being interested in title sequences. When I first watched 'Catch Me If You Can' (great movie, of course) and absolutely loved the opening credits by Kuntzel and Deygas, they open the movie in such an elegant and creative way, they preview the events of the movie however don't give too much away and are also entertaining. Then I thought about how people (as well as myself) usually just skip the credits, and don't really acknowledge them, even though they are vital part of the film as a whole. Thats when I started to get more interested in the title design and this video might get you more into them as well! 




Catch Me If You Can (2002)



The sans serif typeface used is called Coolvetica if you're interested, it used to be free however you now have to pay for it, probably after it got really popular.

Heres some more title sequences worth watching

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005)
Se7en (1995)
