Juno Opening Sequence

- Autumn - big font, hand-written, black and white
- entire title sequence is drawn


- immediately shows studio "Fox searchlight pictures presents" - hand writing, white on green grass - only colour - makes it stand out
- all writing on screen for about 2 seconds
- information easy to read and big - all in the same font - diary?
- 3rd title jumbled on to screen - different - "a Jason Reitman film" - about a second between titles
- "JUNO" changing colour, big, title, important


- "Ellen Page" next to girl, title sequence is about her - she's the main character - smaller than "Juno"
- 3 titles in a continuous shot - supporting actors, font colours contrast with the background
- "Michael Cera" by guitar - foreshadowing character
- actor's names fade in and out with the background
- "casting by" in red like the girl's top, "Mindy Marin" yellow like bottle in girl's hand
- "costume design" in same style
- Music by" and "songs by" moving almost in time with the music - contrasting colours
- colours of the titles match the colours of what's on the screen - same colour scheme
- all titles are slightly off-centre - different to first few titles
- camera pans up from her feet to show another title


- "executive producers" and "produced by" break rule by showing text in colours that aren't elsewhere on the screen
- "directed by" bigger than the other titles
- about 24 titles
- titles are moving around the screen
