Analysis of an opening credit sequence

Opening credit sequences are shown at the beginning of a film, in which opening credit sequences consist of the key cast members in the film, the producers/distributors of the film, and who the film is associated with. Opening credit sequences are usually shown as a big font, over a black background screen or a static screen to catch the audience’s eyes, in which opening credit sequences are usually accompanied by music playing over the writing.

Furthermore, opening credit sequences are not shown in all films. For example in the film ‘Narc’, opening (key cast members, producers/distributors, and who the film is associated with) and closing (all the cast, producers, designers, directors, writers and editors) credit sequences are shown, however in the film ‘The Avengers’ only closing credits are shown, which highlights not every film that is made/produced has opening credit sequences.
