Opening titles and credits

In films opening credits and titles are very common and can come either integrated or standard.

Some examples of integrated titles are:

Harry Potter:

In the opening we see the title come from behind one of the clouds

 

Zombieland:

The title is in 3rd and when the crow bar goes through the water sprinkler it breaks both the water and title apart



The girl with the dragon tattoo:

The title is submerged in dark liquid we assume is oil

 

Examples of none integrated titles are:

Pulp Fiction:

A simple opening and the title fades into the background with the rest of the credits appearing as a normal credits.



Jackie Brown:

Similar to Pupl Fiction the opening sees the character move along the shot and the title simply pops onto the screen.



Integrated titles are more complicated and usually can appear behind or in-font of another visual on the screen such as a building or a car. There is no official order in which titles will always show up in a film, recently some motion pictures babe actually not used opening credits and only display the movies title at the closing credits. Films such as the Star Wars franchise don't show opening credits they only show the films title.
