Killer Titles:
I watched Casino Royale last night after I got home from The Tree Huggers Ball and the best part of the movie by far was the FrameStore CFC titles designed by Daniel Kleinman. http://www.framestore-cfc.com/commercials/index.html
I don`t mean to demean these opening titles by just saying that they were the best part of the movie because the movie itself had some real problems like very sloppy editing and story flow and even story. These titles would stand out even on a much better movie.
People, both inside and outside the industry, tend to overlook title animation. There have been some incredible title animation over the years like The Incredibles, The Pink Panther, A Series of Unfortunate Events and nobody seems to take note at the award shows or in the media. Maybe it is because too many people think of titles as something that fills the screen during last minute popcorn buying time?
