challenge?)
• Genre (what genre is the film? How is this communicated in
the titles?)
• Codes (symbolic, technical, verbal/text, enigma)
• Target audience (who is this aimed at? How can you tell?)
• Institution (who is it produced and distributed by? How is
this communicated in the titles?)
• Text (what do the titles say? Is there any significance to the
language or the credit order?)
• Why do you like it? (why do you think that this is an
effective title sequence?)
