Title Research: Art of the Title Website

 As the final task is something the group has never researched on, will will start step by step. We went with the website Art of the Title, to get a overall idea on how thriller opening sequences are conducted. On the site, we seen endless opening sequences with the repetition of a thumbnail with the title of the movie displayed. While taking notes on the directors and their teams approach to title designs, it is quite noticeable on how the horror and thriller movies have a mysterious or dark title. It is also in the middle of the dark thumbnail with eerie texts. Opposite to this, we observed how the action, romantic, and comedies featured the main character displayed on the site of their movies. On that note, we decided to follow these features of a dark thumbnail and text that displays a mysterious mood to the audience. To further collect more research, without watching, we seen how the site lays out a storyboard for each movie. Considering, that we are only focusing on title research, this was not helpful yet. Below the selected movie, was a proper credited team that put together the opening sequence. This was helpful, to give our team an outline on how to set up our credits and assign specific roles.

Podcast Script:  Hello, welcome back to my podcast. Today I am discussing the film Cold Case. Cold Case is a new thriller movie about a group of teenagers exploring an abandoned ice rink and not making it out alive. Our first question today is; how does Cold Case engage with audiences.   The foundation of "Cold Case's" engagement lies in its ability to forge a deep, emotional connection with its audience. This connection is c reated through the film's focus on five friends exploring an abandoned ice rink, a premise that is both relatable and builds a potential for tension and horror. By choosing characters that viewers can see reflections of themselves in, the film allows you to put yourself into the situation of the characters . The horror and suspense are n’t just limit ed to the screen; they resonate on a personal level, tapping into the universal fear of the unknown.   Moreover, the found footage style of "Cold Case" serves as a powerful tool for imme
