Semiotics and Title Sequences

Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the intersection of photography and typography, this book offers a groundbreaking theoretical model for understanding title sequences in film and television. It delves into how text and image work together to convey meaning, extending its analysis to subtitles and intertitles. Through detailed examinations of classic films like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and contemporary television designs from Magnum P.I. and Vikings, it critiques title sequences as both a unique art form and a narrative prelude to the films that follow.
