The Watchmen Opening Credits
Unfortunately I'm not making a superhero movie, but I looked at the opening credits from 'The Watchmen' because of the interesting way in which they are presented. The film opens with a dramatic fight scene before going into this titles sequence.
The main reason i like this clip is because of the way they incorporate the credits into the scenes. The writing is all of the same style and colour, as are the credits on most films, but they are placed at various angles, and are sometimes behind objects. This gives the effect that they are in the scene and the audience can focus on them as well as the slow motion clips in which they appear. A shot i particularly like is the one of the plane, where the text stays level with the wing as it flies towards the camera. I can take this into account when thinking about credits in my film opening, in order to make them stand out.
I couldn't find a video that i could embed so here is the link.
