The Art of the Title Sequence

Being one of my favorite films, '300' was originally a comic and so the whole film was created to be as close as possible to the same comic format. The location the filme created by CGI, in a studio, to create the comic effect. The pictures as you can see are all cartoons along with the font which is the exact same style found in a majority of comic books. Blood is something which is emphasised throughout this title sequence and the main title itself is written in a blood style font with a black background to portray the darkness in this film. In addition, the cartoon figures in the title sequence are all pitch black with no attention to detail or colour whereas the only colour is in the background and the colour red for the blood.

The title sequence appealed to me becasue its very fast paced and gives a rough idea of how the film is, having watched it myself I would say it does this to a good standard.
