Research - Comparing Media Texts


On the left is my title to my opening of a horror film, and on the right is a opening title to the horror movie 'Halloween'. The two different titles are very similar on how they appear, they both fade in and out, apart from mine appears from left to right one letter at a time. From my research earlier last year, i saw that all titles to horror movies use a dark background or setting with bright coloured writing such as; red, oranges, whites. This connotes a dramatic and eerie atmosphere, also using a cultural code as if you were to watch this without knowing it was a horror then they would not pick up on the codes and conventions, whereas an audience who watch horror movies would know the typical conventions used to create a horror title opening - making it obvious!
