Credit Research

As we have reached the stage of creating credits for our film, I watched a few film openings and analysed the use of credits. The common trend seemes to start with the production company, followed by the leading actors name, then the title of the film. This surprised me as I always thought the title would appear towards the end of the credits, not the beginning.
The next credits that followed were the other actors followed by other elements such as casting, music, costume, editor, production designer, director of photography, executive producers, prouducers, screenplay and finally the director. I never noticed that the director appeared at the end of the credits, this inspired me to do this for my film also.
From looking at my research it has made me change my mind about the order of my credits and has made me consider where to place the title, towards the beginning or end of the film. I will also incorporate some of the credits into the film such as 'music supervisor' and 'casting'as it makesthe film look more realistic.
