Iron Man 3 and Great Expoectations Title sequence

Iron Man 3

Iron man 3 has a very up tempo track playing, this automatically suggests that it is going to be a very fast paced film with lots of action, which it is as it is a superhero, action movie. The names of cast and crew come up with snapshots of the iron man in action. We also see lots of action, explosions and special effects also giving a taste of what is to come in this superhero movie. The sequence also summarizes the film and is almost a movie in itself as it introduces the characters and establishes the plot and themes of the film. It uses very bright reds and blocked writing which suggests it is very fun and playful, this also gives clues of the humorous film to come. The screen is also split in a comic book style suggesting it is based on a comic.


Great Expectations


The soundtrack for Great Expectations is quite slow and features a piano. This suggest perhaps a slow paced movie with tragedy/love. This title sequence is a discrete sequence, this is because it makes no direct hints about the plot of the film. however the use of a butterfly emerging from its cocoon makes suggestions about the film being a story of blossoming/ growing. The use of dull colours and simple writing shows that it is based on an old story and set in the past.
