Page 1: The Shawshank Redemtion Titles

This first scene introduces the name of the company that created the film. Castle rock entertainment has presented other films such as flipped, the polar express and friends with benefits. These films are popular which means that people may have high expectations of the film and its quality.

The name is shown in all capitals which creates a bold front. It is big and in the middle of the screen which gives a dramatic feel however, the black background gives an eerie feel to it but it gets you ready for the up and coming titles as it is clear with structure.

Tim Robbins plays the main character of the film, he is known for being an actor and director and is popular for being in this film. His name is shown in the same way as the first title screen and it comes after the previous as it says ‘presents’ before which shows that castle rock entertainment is presenting the important actors and relevant introductions before the film starts.

The black background and capitalised white font is the same and so is the dramatic way it is shown , right in the middle of the scene.

This next scene is again, showing the name of a very famous and well known actor. An audience would get their hopes up and rise their expectations of the film when they see that Morgan freeman is going to be in it as he has appeared in many other popular films such as Bruce almighty, dark night, Lucy, the Lego movie and feast of love. As well as appearing in TV shows.

The scene is presented in the clear structure again which creates a sense of rhythm and purity interlinked with the other scenes potentially.

This next title scene introduces the name of the movie. This automatically grabs the audiences attention as it is what they know they are wanting to watch, its sets you up to watch the rest of the film and gets you more interested in it, especially as they have introduced well known actors before introducing the film name.

The font is white and all in capitals making it clear and in front, showing the importance of this title and film.

This title of Bob Gunton is introduced next. He Is an actor in the film. The fact his name is shown shows that he has some importance in the film but other factors such as the fact it is introduced after the other actors and the name of the film suggest that he does not hold a well known front. His name is shown in all capitals within the same font type and colour but it is smaller and shown at a lower level of the scene.

This title actually appears on a clip from the film, which means that the film has already started slowly but is still introducing titles,

The name William Sadler is shown in this next scene, he is s well known actor and he appears in other films such as iron man 3, Die hard 2 and the mist.

Its similar to the last scene with the font size and colour and a similar placement.

Again this title is above a scene in the film, the scene is low key and slow which means you can easily read and recognise the title name.

The next scene is again a scene starting off the film with the low key lighting, the name of the actor ‘Clancy brown’ is shown in capital letters and a white font placed in the bottom left of the screen towards the middle. The name of these actors being shown shows that they hold relevance in the film butt they may not have a big part or they aren’t as known.

Clancy brown is known for being an American actor in tv shows and films such as being a voice in SpongeBob, Spiderman and the animated series superman and appearing in star ship troopers and highlander.

The next scene is the actors name Gil Bellows, similar to the other scenes, the name is shown on the long running starting scene of the film which you can tell because all the scenes link with each other and so does the order of the actors that are being presented.

This title scene is low key and shows a gun which creates mystery as it stands out among the other title scenes.

Gil bellows appears in many other TV shows and films such as unthinkable, the calling and the weather man.

This is the last screen in the opening sequence that introduces a title. It is shown on a scene which links from the others but its got more colour and depth to it compared to the others.

The font colour, size and placement is the same as the other scenes of a similar background.

Mark Rolston is the name of the actor that has been introduced. He appears in other films such as Hard rain, Saw and rush hour.
