Title research: (Taking Chance)

    The film we are talking about today is a 2006 film based on a journalist true story. When viewing the opening of this film  the title sequences that were displayed included the Name of the Studio, Name of the Production Company ,Actor(s) names, Film Title , Casting  ,Music,  Editors ,Production designers ,  Directors of Photography, Producers, Storyline, Written/screenplay , and the Director. In this opening it was more of a journal entry kind of thing. The style and images that were focused on were the style and font type of writing that was used to put emphasis in the background. Michael Riley stated, "The credits are set in a basic sans-serif font which makes nice contrasts to the (post-processed) live action footage of writing. Black ink gets absorbed into the thirsty, white paper-a reference to the diaries kept by the main character".

     This movie is based off of a true story. So the meaning behind the authenticity enthused handwriting was to portray the image that even for basic compositional principles developed in these 2D designs ;they are created from their own individual shots leaving the visual to be astoundingly precise and soft to the touch from the viewers perspective. This film is based on a true journal writing. This film drawls in its audience and using the soft touch of the handwriting to appeal to the targeted audiences emotions. They succeed in trying to projecting them onto the screen to try to convey it as something the average person in life would go through in this situation.

     This film is about "on the personal account of a US Lieutenant who, at his own request, accompanied the remains of a young Marine who got killed in Iraq back home to his family in Wyoming."(watchthetitles). The design of the titles sequence is made to be a delicate writing. That means it is more difficult to understand when analyzing  from a imaginative or sensitive emotional style of writing. Although I only watched the intro understanding that there is a conflict with the main character is key. The main character, I assume was the male actor shown in the opening at the end. 

    The opening ends with a close up shot of him having a concerned and conflicted look on his face that could leave the audience thinking what could be the problem. It lets the audience know that this actor is most likely being presented with a problem. That is more than about logic it involves more emotion and understanding to the situation that should be provided later in the film with better explain actions and connections. It is safe to say that this is one of the best drama films I was able to find on the websites called watchthetitles.com.
