What We Learnt From The Analysing Credits

From analysing the credits we can learn some things

 

Who should get the credits:

Director 

casting director

film company

actors

director of photography

title of the thriller

music by...

editor

writer
 

It helped us to consider the order of the credits in our thriller. We felt that the title should come at the end, in front of the face of our killer, to start the story of how he got to this point, as the opening sequence will be a flash back.

 

We need to create realistic name for a film company. For example ' Smithy Works'

 

We realised that when filming we should leave areas in the shot for the credits to appear, and if not we should have seperate backgrounds especially for credits.

 

The British films feature the actors names lower down in the list, while an American film may feature the actors first as they are more likely to sell the film.
