Taxi Driver -
In this particular extract, the titles that are used are very minimalistic, the extract starts of with a black screen, then, by using a fade, the first titles appear. this is how we have decided to show our own titles, the only difference is that our titles are in the dead space around our characters.
the main title for this extract is only revealed as the Taxi drives of, it is like a wipe.
this is a good effect and has worked well for this film, i do not feel that it would have worked very well for our film because it would have drawn the audience away from what was happening in the main focus of the frame.
Die Hard -
This extract is quite similar to the 'Taxi Driver' titles i the way that they both begin with black backgrounds and then the titles appear on the black background. the only difference is that this piece shows the titles on the actual moving picture.
the titles are faded on and off the screen. they are also shown in the establishing shot which can mean that the suspense has been taken away, however, in this particular extract, there is no suspense. i also noticed that the main title is shown much later that all of the other subtitles.
Terminator 2 -
In this extract we see the same idea as the first two extracts, there is a set soundtrack, the titles are faded on and off the screen. the main difference in this particular extract is the fact that the titles are not place in a specific place so as to not draw the attention of the audience away from the main focus of the scene. these titles are positioned in the middle of the screen, i noticed that this is not a big deal because they have but the titles on a moving image that is meant to be a moving background, this particular imigary is not the main focus of these few scenes.
