Title length

Within our opening for Dazed, the black screen and titles themselves provide a sense of structure amongst an extremely quick confused sequence of shots. Conventionally, the black screens would provide a moment of silent drawing sole focus to the titles however our use of ringing sounds mirrors the relentless uncomfortable nature of the entire opening. The length of the titles themselves follows the industry standard of four seconds to display both the role and title. We included as minimal titles as possible, only displaying the crucial roles to ensure the opening doesn't become too broken up. Unlike the opening of features such as Napoleon Dynamite (2004) the titles themselves were not a critical aspect of Dazed but rather assisting the intensity of the entire opening.
