Departed

Last night I watched part of a film called Departed even though I thought it was quite boring. However the film title appeared two minutes into the film which I thought was good research for our film seeing as our title appears at the end of the opening. This is the first 4 minutes or so of the film and as you can see the title of the film has still not appeared and doesn't appear until the first 10-20 minutes of the film. So this shows that some films do not introduce the title until halfway through so we could do the same if we wanted to. I like our film title where it is because it fits in well with the music and it also builds suspense to the point where the title is introduced.


By watching this film I had forgotten that the title had not come up yet and I was surprised that it was a good few minutes into the film before the title appeared. However I do think it worked well with this film because it sort of introduced what the genre was and then the title appeared suddenly and it took me by surprise. So I think we could leave our title in the same place but I think we should only put the title once because it is unnecessary to have it there twice.
