A movie we all viewed for a title design is called ‘’Rosemary’s Baby’’. The website I used to find this film was ‘’Art of the Title’’. The film displays lots of different titles. In the beginning it starts by showing two major titles, which were ‘’Paramount’' and ‘’William Castle Productions’’. As soon as the film starts, music is played throughout. After the main titles are shown, the actor’s name that plays the main character is shown. In the background of the names and titles, viewers can see the scenery of a city. The different titles include the productions, the main actor, co-stars, other actors, producers, directors, editors, designers, managers, sound recorders and more. It then displays that the film is from a novel, and they credit the person who made the novel. The scenery in the background makes the audience feel like they need to know more about the city. The city is quite large and overlooked. With the addition of the slow camera movement, the film wants viewers to really think about the city. It also makes us wonder why it is so important if it is shown for such a long time. The music from the start makes viewers feel intrigued and interested. The music sounds mysterious and a bit haunting which gives a glimpse of the mystery genre. It also seems a bit eerie and ghostly from the woman’s singing. In addition, at the very start there is a fade-in to immediately show the background. Throughout the opening, there are multiple zoom-ins and zoom-outs of the place to make watchers focus on what is shown. Towards the end, the audience can see the streets, people walking, and cars moving. This shows that the city is more busy than inactive. At the very end, two people are talking to a person who appears to be a tour guide. They are in a dark-looking alley which also hints at the mystery genre. The camera angles throughout the opening make viewers concentrate on what is being displayed in the background as well as the names and titles.
