Title Sequences

I watched the short video, “Forget the Film, Watch the Titles”, and was so entertained by the example.  The idea of using a computer, something so many people are familiar with, was incredibly interesting.  I think the thing that was most intriguing to me is that I feel like I know a Mac computer, and understand the different tabs, etc – but Aaron Becker introduced them in a new and clever way that kept me very interested throughout the entire title sequence. The title sequence also directly relates with the film, which is not only important, but also helps the audience look at the film in a different way.

It was also cool to see the story boards and how far along they were when presented to HBO.  Ours have been so focused on the first ideas and iterations, but these were very developed.
