When I was young I was always a big fan of going to cinema and catching a short animation at the beginning of the main feature. This is something Pixar seem to have embraced. As I got older it seemed to happen less and less. As the ratings of the films I went to see went up the likelihood of a light-hearted animation to entice the audience went down. That was until the revival of the animated title sequence!

Below I have listed a bunch of title sequences that I feel are just simply great.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang 2005
Danny Yount, Prologue Films

Thank You for Smoking 2005
Gareth Smith, Shadowplay

Hostage 2005
Laurent Brett

Snatch 2000
Ian Cross & Stuart Hilton, FAQ

RocknRolla 2008
Danny Yount, Prologue Films

Catch Me if You Can 2002
Kuntzel and Deygas, Add A Dog

You have to check out more work of Danny Yount, he works at Prologue Films and is definitely the man of the hour. He has worked on films like Iron man 1 + 2, Sherlock Holmes, The Book Of Eli, and series Six feat under, The Sopranos, Pushing Daisies. By ‘man of the hour’ I mean his pretty hot right now, but his momentum doesn’t look to be slowing down any time soon.

Hope you enjoyed that! For more amazing title sequences you have to check out Watch The Titles – it is packed with great content.
