Four Lions title sequence
Another opening sequence that we looked at was Four Lions opening sequence happens over the picture instead of being over black. The writing is very small and very few people are credited, these do not include the actors. In the opening titles it shows a city landscape shot, with the words FILM4 PRESENTS, this shows the importance as it is the first text we see and it is the middle at the bottom of the screen. Once it has zoomed in on a the film title FOUR LIONS is seen, in larger font to the previous text. It cuts to a shot of an inside shopping arena at night, while the words ,IN ASSOCIATION WITH WILD BUNCH AND OPTIMUM RELEASING, in the same position and font as the previous words. The distributors names are in a larger font than, FILM4, to show that they are very superior. As it cuts to someone cleaning, A WARP PRODUCTIONS FILM, and ,A CHRIS MORRIS FILM, flashes up on the screen. These are the only credits shown in the opening. All the companies credited are either studios funding, distributing or both. The only person that is credited is Chris Morris as he is the writer and director.
