Touchstone pictures is the production company and is first to appear during the credits. The black background emphasizes how important the company has been to the production of the film. It helps the audience focus on what is important. The company is owed by Walt Disney, which is one of the big 6 major production companies. This implies that the film will be of a high quality.

A Mad Chance/ Jaret Entertainment is featured second as it still played a major role in the production of the film but it is not as big as Touchstone Pictures.

This is the Title screen in the film. It highlights part of the narrative as it is called “10 things I Hate about You”, which suggests that a specific person is causing the main protagonist in the film a huge amount of anger, hate and pain. The words that stand out the most on the page are “I”, “Hate” and “You”. The word “you” is underlined and highlights how the actions of one specific person can make someone feel that way. This is also shown through the style of the writing, as it looks like scribbles; which is normally associated with anger and in this case school, due to it being targeted at teenagers. The style of the writing is also typical for film set during the 90’s. this is due to the fact that it is bright, bold and fun. This also highlights the genre of the film, thanks to the bright colours we can see how the are going to be comedic elements in the film.Furthermore the non-diegetic music in the background tells you what time the film is set, as it is quite outdated. It also highlights the target audience when it was released. The music also allows the audience concentrate on the text as there is currently no story going on in the background. This can emphasise the importance of the title to the film.

These are the names of all the main actors in the film, as they play the leading roles in the film. It highlights their importance in the industry as well as the film. They main actors in films are often very well known, promoting the film and widening the audience. It can help get higher ratings and more people interested in seeing the film. At this point in the credits there is still no narrative, putting emphasis on the actors and their role in the film. When you find out who is in the film it also helps people start to see what the characters will look like. The names also appear in order of importance to the film. For example, Julia Stiles plays the main protagonist in the film so appears first and Heath Ledger play her love interest so comes next.

Before the next lot of actors are introduced there is a gap where some of the narrative is revealed. This highlights that the next lot of actors play supporting characters, but are still fairly well known. The word and also signifies the end of the major actors in the film.

The next lot of actors play minor roles in the film as they come after the major roles. We know they play minor roles as they are credited together rather than individually.

The casting directors follow the actors. This is because it fits well as they were responsible for casting the characters. It is a good transition into the rest of the credits where they will name other important people who helped make the film. The words “casting by” is in a different font to the rest of the font as it allows the audience to establish the difference between the two sets of text.

During the next scene six people are credited. The fact that there is narrative in the background shows that they are important but do not need the full attention of the audience. They also spend less amounts of time on the screen and take up less space, lessening their importance compared to the main actors. This is also because people will spend more time concentrating on the story going behind the credits. However they credits still take up a good portion of the screen and are bold and bright which captures peoples attention even with the narrative. The placement of the writing is also in the same place on the screen each time.

The following people are also credited in the same scene, demonstrating that they have a similar amount of importance. They are also credited individually showing that they are important to the production of the film. On the other hand there is still a narrative in the background, distracting the audiences attention.Once again the text is bold bright, which slightly distracts the audience from the narrative. As before the text remain in the bottom right corner of the screen making it easier for the audience to concentrate on the other part of the screen.

As these names feature at the end of the credits it shows that they are very important to the production of the film. They are put at the end because people usually remember the last thing they see and as they saying goes “save the best till last”, or in this case the most important. People also remember the first thing they see which is why you see the actors names at the beginning and the directors name at the end. This is typical for almost all opening sequences.

Weird Science

The first thing you see in the title sequence is the actual title. It has a unique design that fits the style of the film. It is also in the centre of the screen, this highlights the importance and attracts attention to it. The font is also important as it links with the genre of science fiction due to the fact it has a futuristic look. The contrast in fonts is good as lets the title stand out and the fonts suit each word. The electric style writing and effects draw the audiences attention and excites them about the film. This is also helped by the sound effects which go along with the text. The weird flashes on the screen like an electric bold would. This effect emphasises the importance of the word to the film. On top of this, the sound track also starts saying the title on repeat so the audience wouldn’t forget it. The music also lets the audience know what time period the film was made and set in.

As in the first film the main actors of the film. They order they appear in shows how important they are to the film. You they are the main characters as they appear on their own for a significant amount of time before moving onto the next name. The typography is also consistent throughout the title sequence. The electric blue colours link to electricity, science and excitement. As each name appears in a electric bolt is connotes that the film will be exciting and highlights at the narrative. It also highlights back to the the title scene. The black background also helps the text stand out on the screen, drawing in the audiences attention. This could also suggest there may a dark theme during the film. The names also change along side the music, demonstrating a link between the music and typography.

Once again, there is a list of actors in the film. However the difference is that this time they are grouped together. This highlights that they play minor roles in the film. They are still displayed for the same amount of time as the individual actors but because they are grouped together there is less focus on them individually.

The typography is still in the same font as before. This shows consistency within the film. The glow that surrounds the names stands out more on the screen, this still conveys as scientific element to the film. However the writing doesn’t move on the screen. This may suggest that there are different elements that make up the film, both serious and carefree.

The next people to appear in the title sequence are the casting director, costume designer, music producer and editors. They are still centered on the centre of the screen. They also use the same text and animation as all the actors which links everyone involved with the film together. This demonstrates that they are all important to the production of the film. The font is bright, bold and simple as seen with the actors names. This is also pleasant for the audience to loo at. It also looks similar to “The Breakfast Club” font, another film that was released around the same time. This shows how it was a popular font type for the time. Moreover it makes a link with the director, John Hughes, as he directed both of these films.

This is they last part of the title sequence, naming the production designer, director of photography, producer and writer and director.

This is important as it demonstrates who the most important people are, with the production of the film. You know that these people are important as they are displayed individually, rather than grouping them together. The director typically come at the end of the title sequence. This highlights to the audience that the film is about to start. We have seen this in the previous film as well. The music is still playing in the background, which keeps the audience engaged through out the title sequence as it is not the most entertaining part of the film. The title also appears at the beginning of the title sequence rather than at the end, as seen in most modern day films.

It is also interesting to see that there is no narrative going on the background. This allows the audience to focus filly on the title sequence. This is also seen in older films rather than modern ones.

The title sequence of “Juno” is unique compared to the other two title sequences. This is because of the use of animation and style of the sequence its self. This appears after a short scene setting the narrative for the film. They typography are unique to the style of animation and fit in with the sketch/line drawings. It is a style of bubble writing, which is predominantly a light yellow for the beginning part of the film. The whole colour scheme is based on the primary/basic colours: red, green, yellow and blue. This links with the idea of infancy and childhood, as this is the main theme of the film. It also conveys the childish nature of the protagonist. Tis makes the audience aware of what issues may be raised in the film, and what the characters are going to be dealing with.

The first text to come up is institutional. This informs the audience about the type f film, art house film or major-motion picture. It also tells you who produce and distributed the film.

After the institutional elements the directors of the film appears. This is common for modern films and the directors name is often repeated throughout the title sequence. They also reveal people in order of importance. People may also become more interested in the film once they find out who directed it as they may have a strong reputation and engage them more as the film progresses.

The style of typography helps to reveal to the audience the genre of the film. They type of writing is a form of bubble writing, which is bold and bright. The style remains the same throughout the title sequence. This conveys a fun, comedic nature and helps define the target audience. The creators have chosen an comedy as a genre because it sometimes makes it easier to connect with the audience and talk about certain topic raised in the film. The colours help set a happy tone for this part of the film and also grad the audiences attention, which allows them to pay more attention to the names on the screen. This give people more recognition for their work.

The title is also an important pat of the film as is gives an insight into the narrative. This is relevant here as it tell you the name of the main protagonist in the film, meaning the film is based around events in her life. The title also changes colour so you know it is something to make note of.

During this part of the title sequence it reveals the main actors in order of importance to the film, as in the previous films. This is important as it allows people to start to build up the narrative and how important the actor is to the film. The as with the other title sequences the actors are revealed in the order of importance, starting with the main roles first going on to supporting actors. Revealing the names of the actors also allows fans to recognise their work and lets the audience build up an image of the characters. This can also increase a films reputation, target audience and revenue.

The typography is once again relevant to the the film as it could relate to the sketchy style of writing which students (teenagers)draw in their notebooks with, showing that the film once again relates to teenage issues. The colour of each actors name changes, the females (such as Ellen Paige) are oranges, yellow and pin, and the males (such as Michael Cera) are in blue. The intensity of the colour could also contribute to the importance of their role in the film.Throughout the title sequence “All I Want Is You” by Barry Louis Polisar is playing the song is really relaxing and calm. This also links in with the typography in its nature and genre. Using this particular piece of music links well as it demonstrates how the target audience can relate to the movie and understand the genre.The title sequence also solely focuses on the main protagonist of the film. This is typical of Jason Reitman. His openings are often elaborate and focus on the main characters life. The title sequence also has some narrative in the background, however this doesn’t take any attention away from the credits. Reitman has also frequently worked with J.K Simmons and Jason Batemen.

During this part of the film the font of the text changes slightly, becoming clearer and using two colours to see the difference between the job role and who did it. The job role is also slightly smaller than their name, which helps to show the audience see who was part of the film rather than what job roles were involved. The contrasting colour also helps. Once again the “casting director” follows the actors, because it follows on nicely. The order of the names also follows the same way the actors did, in order of importance.

Although the font changed slightly, is isn't very dramatic for people to notice. It still hold a youthful nature, almost childish, which highlights the age of the protagonist. This is shown through the narrative taking place in the background and how she looks. Furthermore it can suggest her immaturity and personality to the audience. The typography can also provide an insight into major themes involved in the narrative. The simple colours, suggest the theme of infancy and pregnancy and the style of the text is similar to teenager, linking to the protagonists lifestyle and age. Now the audience are aware of the challenges and serious situation the protagonist may face, which links in with the plot.

The following credits are part of the same narrative scene so receive a similar amount of credit. They are part of the production team so their names are grouped together

The last two names to be shown are the most important, as they have contributed the most amount of work to the film. They screen writer and director are revealed at the end of the opening credits because, as n the other films, the audience will pay more attention as the film is about to start.They will receive the most recognition for their work here. Once the has seen the directors name they know that the film is about to start.
