Credits and Film Logos

The title credits are used in films or in many sorts of media such as TV shows, are used in order to credit the people that worked on the product. There are different ways that they are implemented in sequences that fit the film. Some films might have no credits. An example of a film with no credits was the Disney film, Fantasia which was the first film in color to not have any credits included in it. There are some films that just use title credits and no closing credit, this happened in the past a lot. There are films with no title credits but an extensive ending credits. One of the first films to have no title credits and just ending credits was west side story. 

Our type of film is a horror film. There are various title credit sequences that are in the horror genre. An example of this would be the film psycho which uses very unique opening titles. This sequence is very disjointed with multiple white bars separating communicating the type of film it is. Other type of horror sequences with our genre of films are films like IT. Newer films a lot of the time dont have specific title credit sequences and instead have the film play while the credits are in the background. IT does this. It has the only some of the credits in the background and saves the large quantity of credits for the ending of the film. 



The logos of film companies have evolved over time, becoming more modern and showing what type of company they are. An example of a company's logo evolving over time is the logo for Warner Bros. Below is both logos, the one in black in white is the older logo and the one on top is the newer logo. The one at the bottom just is a triangle with a building in the background and The words Warner Bros Production around it. The newer logo is much more modernized with access to colors as there is new technology allowing them to make a much better logo . Below the new logo is a golden shield with the WB Words in the middle and in between there is a banner saying Warner bros pictures surrounding the shield. This logo is a lot more unique and is noticeable so people would easy recognize the company immediately if they saw that Logo. This is an example of developing the film logo and making it more unique so it becomes iconic.
