Bridget Jones' Diary Title Sequence Timeline

Bridget Jones' Title Sequence

I chose to do the Bridget Jones' Diary opening credits as my title sequence timeline, because I think that the films are very funny and have a really strong input of British comedy. I have learnt after reviewing lots of different opening sequences that the pace of them is usually in direct relation to the genre that the particular film is in. For example an action thriller such as 'Sky Fall' has a very busy title sequence with a lot going on, there is a lot of reference as to what is going to proceed the title sequence i.e guns and other iconography. Whereas within the title sequence I have chosen which would belong to the 'rom-com' genre, I think that it just introduces you to the character of the woman in shot. It is a classic rom-com and I do think that this predictable particularly from the song used within the opening credits 'All By Myself'. Stereotypical romantic comedies feature an individual who is lonely at the start of the film then finds love eventually and as predicted this film follows the pattern.
