The Spider-Man title sequence from the worldwide film from 2002 opens with their production company’s logo, which is Columbia Pictures. The sequence of comic book sketches being flicked through with a tint of red with the Marvel logo coming up shows that the film and the franchise is a film based on a comic book.
The screen then cuts to a black screen with blue mist surrounding mainly the screen what could represent a mysterious film to it, whilst the Production and Picture Company come across the screen. Webs now start to build up and this could represent spiders as of a relation to the film. Now in the same sharp font for the films typography the title of the film comes on screen rotation and at larger form compared to the names already seen, this centers itself in the middle with a web fitting and moving in the background to represent the realism of the web and that this is the main title and this is the film. The sound throughout this part is dramatic and loud.
The title now comes towards us and the white font makes the screen go white and then fades into black. The music now builds up to create fear and tension what describes an action film well. The unique font what has is white with a red outline now comes up with a web has the main actors name come up with webs in the background. This does this for several main star names and then the web can now overlay the names to show the more important names have gone.
James Franco name now comes up with a red mist building behind to a side and the camera moves into it, this could represent blood as a sign of danger which could happen sometime in the film. The next icon of representation you see is a tensed red arm what could mean strength of the main character and power.
A rotation of the top half of Spider-Man now goes past to introduce the character and which some casting follows. Some white mist comes on the screen now to bring the mask off the Green Goblin introducing him to the movie with it then changing into a web to represent maybe a victory?
It now shows shots of towers from different angles to set the setting of the film within a city. An arm is also shown in the build up facing upwards with Spider-Man climbing it to maybe represent a building with the blocks of his costume maybe showing winders and levels of the building.
To finish of the sequence social commentary by the main character Peter Parker/Spider-Man introduces the film with a fade from a digital web to a realistic web in the scenery of a town now to finish the transaction off the sequence to the film.
