My Favourite Film Analysis

7. My Favourite Film Analysis 



The Poster
One of my favourite films has got to be 'Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 1'.
So, therefore have decided to do a film title sequence analysis on it 
to share with you what caught my attention as the audience when watching it. 









In the title sequence of Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 1, the first thing that shows to appear is the name and logo of the studio Summit Entertainment. This is an American film studio and is a subsidiary of Lions Gate. There are many other big hit films from this studio such as all the other sequels of The Twilight Saga, Divergent, Step Up, RED, Sinister and etc.
The logo is shown with a red cloudy and mysterious background as it is in the theme of Twilight, blood, vampires and werewolves.




It then slowly transits from the Summit Entertainment logo to the title 'Breaking Dawn Part 1' also in the theme of Twilight. This slowly fades in and out with the background changing colour from red to blue. Perhaps, indicating the cold and hot of vampires and werewolves, which again links and shows the theme. 



                                                                               




This was the opening title sequence where it introduces the studio and title. 

The closing title sequence begins after Bella opens her red eyes as she becomes a vampire.
The first thing that is shown is the name of the director: Bill Condon


The credits begin with the name of the director with black and bold text on top of red background. This also links to the theme of vampires and blood.

From red background and black text, it then moves to the opposite which contrasts and looks attracting to the audiences eyes. Still linking to the theme of vampires, darkness and blood to the film.

It then includes a extended clip of the royal vampires 'The Volturi' receiving a letter from 'Carlisle' about Bella finally becoming a vampire and the messenger who is human being dragged away to be bitten. From then the credits are shown again in a credit roll.
