As part of your Thriller film you need to create titles and show an awareness of the conventions surrounding use of titling at the start of films. In order to do this you need to do some research specifically on titles.
Using this
website and this
website you need to study how titles are used in
at least three films (at least 2 need to be thriller films). You could also look at the opening sequences to some recent TV programmes working in the Thriller genre like
Dexter,
True Detectives Hannibal and
Sherlock
You need to work out what types of titles are used and also consider how the titles can be used to create meaning, suggest themes, mood etc. Think about how different font style suggests different things, think about what colours means, and how they might appear and disappear from the scene. You should also think about what background would be good for showing titles, slapping them on top of you actual film may not be the best thing. You need to think about them as a short (10sec) sequence.
You could also have a look at and comment on the way titles have been used in these student examples:
Missing
Revenge
Guilty
Masked
Truth
Consider what you might do for your titles.
