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.
