Title Research: "XXX: State of The Union"

Hey blog. Today I will be working on the next step of my opening scene. The next task I have to complete is my title research where I will be watching different opening scenes from different movies in order to find inspiration for my opening sequence. Today I watched "XXX: State of The Union" and few different things catch my attention. The opening scene starts with a close up of Ice Cube as he is walking on a jail hallway while being escorted by two guards in military gear. After the ice cube shot it transitions into animations with multiple titles as well as images that relate to the movie which give us a better idea of what the movie is about. The titles that were included on the opening scene was the name of the movie "XXX: State of The Union" as well as characters name's: Ice cube, Samuel L. Jackson, Willem Dafoe, Scott Speedman, Peter Strauss, among other different actors and Atris. On the opening scene we also got special mentions for those who made up part of the movie without necessary being on the big screen. There is multiple images on the opening scene because most of them are animations related to the movie like: American Flag where the movie takes place as well as different objects that are significant to the movie like: Bullets, Pillars, Guns that were recently shot, Tanks, Cell bars, a jail and then it transitions to an animation of a circuit as well as a screen full of digits which assimilate to a hacking system, cars going at great speed, helicopters, and finally it shows the title of the movie giving the credit to the director of the movie to then transition to the white house where the movie is supposed to begin. I believe that all these images are a great sneak peak of what is about to come, and it gives a thrilling feeling for the viewer because it is a saturation of images that catch the attention of the viewer due to the high intensity of this. I can tell exactly what to expect and it definitely set an intense tone with a big amount of action simply by implementing all the animations on the opening sequence. Thank you so much for your time have a great day!
