Film Opening credits and titles analysis/opening 2


first of all my computer is being weird and wont let me print screen this so I'm going to have to tell you the time and then tell you what I like about that bit, and secondly I couldn't find the opening credits for The Woman in Black.
0:01 - I like the way the the name of the company fades in, what i like about it is that the company name fades in on a small red background, but when it fades in the red looks like blood before it solidifies.
Magnet Releasing is part of Magnolia Pictures. Magnet Releasing specialize in Horror, Comedy and Action films as well as Asian Cinema. Magnolia Pictures is a distribution arm of Wagner/Cuban companies.

0:08 - The second company name - DraftHouse Films is shown. DraftHouse Films is a distribution arm of Alamo DraftHouse Cinema, DraftHouse Films debuted in 2010 with the release of Four Lions.

0:13 - The last company name, Timpson Films is shown. Timpson Films, which i couldn't find anything relevant about.

0:18 - Your given information about the short film.

0:30 - you fade in from black to s dimly lit room where a book is on the table and is actually the only thing in the shot and then it flips open until it comes to rest on a page.

0:57 - you see a group of school children playing catch then when the girl throws the ball to one of the boys it takes his head off so if you had not read the information about the film this is what would tell you that the film is a horror. The other children then drop the ball and continue playing the game with the other boys head.

the rest of the opening continues with scenes where children are playing play ground games e.g skipping, where someone ends up dead.
