Change in Titles

We have changed the order of our titles because although the titles I have put on the blog below are how they would have been done in the 1940s-50s and we are doing a neo noir which is typical of this time we are not in fact making our film in the 1940s so therefore we have adjusted them to be more like those in a new film. On the software we have used scrolling text so that the titles all roll up the screen against the dark shadow on the wall, all except the name of the producer and director who’s names are in slightly larger American typewriter font than the rest and the are cross dissolved in and out in the middle of the page. This is typical of noirs as well as modern films to have the producer and director’s names stand out, as they are the most important. This can be seen in Chinatown 1974, which is a well-known old noir.
