“Blogging is to writing what extreme sports are to athletics: more free-form, more accident-prone, less formal, more alive. It is, in many ways, writing out loud.”

Comparing Credit Listing 3- Silence of The Lambs

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS
 

The credit listing:
  1. The production company
  2. Staring actors x3
  3. Title of Movie
  4. The additional Actors x15
  5. Casting
  6. Music/ Composer
  7. Costume designer
  8. Production designer
  9. Director of Photography
  10. Editor
  11. Novel Author
  12. Executive Producer
  13. Screen play
  14. Producers
  15. Director
Silence of the Lambs opening sequence starts with  the Production company name, (A Strong Heart/Demme Production), comparing to the Shutter Island which doesn't mention there Production Companies name. Following this they mention the three staring actors (Jodie foster, Antony Hopkins and Scott Glenn) in order of appearance. They also edited in another 15 additional actors in the movie. Like, Shutter Island who have marketed the movie around the big names, they have credited all principles actors involved and not counted on the big name. This company have ordered them appositionally to shuttle island instead of starting with the Producer and \Director, they have ended with them.
As this was made 20 years age, the text is black and white (capital letters) is dull and boring although was very clear. The graphics of this opening as limited because it is a introduction to the character and not a Kyle Cooper opening sequence. This is what my group need to be aware of.
