Titles Text Analysis

Text Analysis

The text of the Spring Breakers title is very unconvential  says a lot of the film. The colour scheme for example, although there are other colours, is based primarily on the colours pink and blue. These are usually colours used to represent boys and girls, men and women.

 

The text is built mainly of flowers butterflies and fire. The fire could possibly be a suggestion of the possible conflict and chaos in the film between between the females, or possibly males and females. The flowers and butterflies both add to the girly feel of the titles with the colours, as both are generally matched with the female stereotype.

 

The Boondocks title is simple and is composed of a old fashioned type thin gold font on a gold background. This gives quite an old and retro feel which is quite contradictive to the actual show as it is very modernised. Also on either side of the writing there is the silhouettes of 2 of the main characters, brothers Huey and Riley Freeman. This gives us an insight to the characters of the show but doesnt give away too much about them. This is cleverly done because if you have seen the show before then even just from the silhouette the two are instantly recognisable but if you have not seen it before then the images will not mean anything to you. This partially conforms to the titles convention of white block writing on a black background, but with the colour or the text changed.

The Dark Knight Rises is composed of blue flames with a black background and write text. This is quite conventional but with blue flames added to create a silhouette o the well recognised. Without this it would be the traditional black background with white text. The simplicity of it is effective as it can instantly be recognised as a batman film even thoughb it is not explicitly stated.
