Credit sequences

 Hello guys! Today i'll be researching 3 credit sequences and analyzing them. Credit sequences usually serve a bigger purpose, they don't choose the most basic font or color to  just list the names, it is usually related to the character, scenes, or setting. They highlight the characters journey throughout the movie. Here are three credit sequences in the Sports/Drama genre that stand out.


Air (2023)

The end credits of Air (2023) feature real like clips and images of Michael Jordan, Nike executives, and the evolution of the Air Jordan brand. The credit sequence at the end has a background music of the 80's, which makes sure the audience feels energy and excitement. The font and style of the credits are bold and retro, they resemble the advertising and branding from the 1980's. It fits the business and athletic themes of the film. As for the color scheme, the colors are bright reds, deep blacks, and very bold whites, which happen to be Air Jordans signature colors.


King Richard (2021)

The credits of "King Richard" show real life clips pf Venus and Serena Williams, as well as their father Richard. They show clips of interviews, championship highlights and, videos from when they had first started training, which is reminding the viewers of the film based on a true story. The text of the credits appear in white or gold with warm toned, old footage. 


American Underdog (2021)

American underdog also shows real life short videos of Kurt warners career, from his days in the Arena football league to his super bowl victory. We see clips of interviews, games, as well as clips of his family. The font is clean and pretty much elegant and professional, it's very modern i would say. The sequence is also filled with many blues, golds and whites, which are the colors of the Rams and the NFL. The bright colors give a very happy and positive vibe. The credit sequence strengthens the real life main idea behind the movie, showing Kurt Warner's story is full of faith, determination, patience, and trying to achieve what you think is the impossible.
