Conventions of a title sequence

Films follow a specific sequence when presenting it's titles. The Distribution logo comes first and then the production company logo, then it reveals the title and then it shows the cast in the film. The main actor comes first as they are like the star of the film, the it  goes from the most important actor towards the least important actor. After it has shown these then the film presents the crew which produced the film, starting from least important going up to the most important which is presuming to be the director.





















In the title sequence The Sixth Sense it starts off with two distribution company logos and then it reveals the names of the people from the production company. Then it shows the main actor which is Bruce Willis before the title of the film this is to show that he is the star in the film. Then it shows all other actors/actresses their is only one name on the screen each time to show that they have quite a large amount of screen time. Then it shows two names on one screen to show that their roles aren't as important.



Finally it shows the crew that made the film happen starting from the person who got the cast and ending with the person who wrote the story and the person who directed it. Casting by is the person who finds the actors and actresses to make the film successful. The costume designer is the person who designs the costumes for the actors and actresses. The person who the music is by is written from scratch. The production designer is the person who sorts out the lighting/props etc. The director of photography is the person who sets up the camera shot types. The executive producer is the person who finds the money to fund the film and is managerial type of person.
