Skyfall Opening Credits (HD)

Daniel Craig's name comes up first up first in the middle of the screen. This is because he is the most recognised character and therefore putting his name on first in the middle of the screen means that the audience isn't going to miss his name. Ian Fleming's name then comes up who directed the film and is also known for directing the Bond films. Then the rest of the credits come up on the side of the screen showing that they are not as significant. Then Judi Dench's name comes up in the middle of the screen, this shows that she is also a important recognised character.  Only a few of the remainder of the credits come up on their own on the screen showing that they are not as important as the previous credits. This is until the name Sam Mendes comes up on the screen who directed the film, this was the final credit showed as well making it significant.

Order of credits -Psycho

Alfred Hitchcock's name comes up first on his own. Alfred Hitchcock is well known to be,"The Master of Suspense". His names comes up first so the audience recognizes a name straight away to keep them enticed. The next credit that comes up is Anthony Perkins who is acting in the film. Anthony Perkins name comes up along with Vera Miles and John Gavin at the same text size and duration as Hitchcock's name which shows that they are equally as important in the film. Next comes the credits for the co staring which include Martin Balsam and John McIntyre. The text has become smaller now which tells the audience that these are not the big names.

The sequence opens with the production company and other stuff like that and then we move onto the characters where Robert Di Nero, Val Kilmer and Al Pacino come up on the same page first, this signifies that these characters are the most well known because they are presented to us as an audience first. After the Al Pacino, Val Kilmer and Robert Di Nero text comes up we change to a different shot, the next names obviously are not as significant as they are presented after, they are all presented a couple of seconds after the previous credit with the same type of text and the same size text. This is boring for the audience to watch as it is so repetitive. Boring the audience at this stage of the film is not a good idea as this is the first thing you show them and if they don't like then the audience may not even watch the rest of the film.
