Even though I already researched one website, I am looking at another one to get more information. Information and extra details that the first website didn't mention. I need as much information as possible in relating to titles for my task. It is important for me to have a good amount of knowledge on the making and decisions needed to take when I do my title. Music or some type of sound is added to the titles. Most tend to be done on a solid color background. There are some other films that involve images relating to the movie. Also, some are very colorful but, it does depend on what the movie is about. The title screen is very important in catching attention. It is the first thing people see before watching the movie so it means that it has to look really nice and has to be an attention getter. 

I am researching this website because I need to learn about making titles. For example, I need to learn how to make the title fit with my task. I know nothing on making titles and the process of it so, researching is necessary to make a great title. During a quick glimpse of the website I saw many different ways titles were portrayed. Some had all the letters capitalized while others only had the first letter of each word. I quickly learned the the main basic way of styling a title is at the center of the screen and in all capitals. The color of the words need to be a contrasting color making it pop out on the screen. Titles also tend to be on an all black background or a dark color like red, navy blue, or even gray. From looking through many titles I learned also that the image that the title is going to be on is important. Many movies have an image that shows a glimpse of the movie or gives a hint to what the movie is based about.

S uspense is going to help lead to the kidnapping in my film because it's going to aware the watchers something is up. So, it's also going to influence a person's anticipation. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like?  This movie had a lot of elements of the genre film. My favorite element was the suspense. One scene the built a lot of suspense was at the beginning of the movie.  It was a scene where the girl locked at her dog and walked towards him because he was barking. The girl was deaf and we were put in her shoes because we couldn't hear the dog bark and we saw that the dog had goosebumps. This lead suspense lead to anticipation that ...
