Research And Planning-Analysis Of A Old Title Sequence "To Kill A Mockingbird"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rP5MutuPVxk

The opening sequence for To Kill A Mockingbird is wonderfully made and exciting to watch. The main focus of the film is innocence and the fact that the main image of the opening sequence is of a child drawing really captures the essence of innocence that the film represents.

The fact that the titles are in black and white really add to the effect of the film. There is no colour this requires the audience to use their imagination especially in regards to the image of the child drawing as it makes us think what are they drawing and what is the significance to this drawing.

The way this title sequence is different from so many modern ones is its simplicity the fact that the titles work so well in context with the film itself if the titles were over complicated it would take away the true meaning of time film.

Research and Planning- The Song For Our Titles Take 2

When we originally planned our opening sequence we wanted to remix the song, She's Got You High By Mumm-Ra. However when we remixed it we felt it didn't really go with the edited footage so we then came up with the idea of recording the song with just the guitar riff and perhaps the underlying bass riff. once we recorded it the guitar was played with the edited footage, as a groupe we thought it fitted really well and we all felt very excited.
