Title Research : Action Movie The Terminator


The Terminator is an 1984 Action Film. I used the website Art of the titleto do this research. In the terminator there are 21 intro titles ( 22 with the logo of the movie). The intro was about 3 minutes long in length. The images that are displayed in the intro is a close up very of the terminator logo. I don't know why it was a close up view of the logo because it was unusual to me. The genres reinforce in the opening acts with the title because the titles have a typing type animation and after a person's name is shown for a  few seconds it disappears. It types the person's name in white then other disappears its in green as in its done coding like terminating. The first 2 titles were long paragraphs that you'll have to read while there were lazors all shooting in the background. The enigma that the film create is why is there a large text in the beginning scenes of the movie while there is action going on in the background. Assured me that the film tries to use is using a background checks while action is going on so you can get her focus on the storyline of the movie or the action going on in the movie. It's smart because people that read the text will understand what's going on but other people will not.  Technology was has been used effectively because it's was ahead of its time. The editing process sure took a long time because of all the lasers and robotic parts that the production crew would have to make.  Camera angles used in the intro are close shot , medium shot and 2 shot. Transition go smoothly as they go from one scene to another in different perspectives. An example of this is the laser shooting down at a subject, running with the camera to another position where they are in place while still shooting down at the subject.
