Conventions of title sequences

In Emily's lesson we discussed the codes and conventions of film title sequences and how it breaks down into smaller chunks by using 'Stincs' 

S - Setting: where and when is the film set? 
T - Theme: what is the mood of the film? (Love, jealousy, revenge) 
I - Iconography: costumes, makeup, props etc (relevant to the genre) 
N - Narrative: what is the story about? 
C - Characters: who are they? What are they like?
S - Style: cinematography, sound, editing. What the film will look and feel like. 

Nearer to the end of the lesson we then looked at some film titles that are on ArtOfTheTitle these were:
