Macro Elements
Macro Elements
There are key technical components of a film can be divided into two key categories:
Macro Elements
Micro Elements
The term "macro" refers to two things; genre and narrative.
The term genre refers to a category of media products that are classified as being similar in form or type.
Sub genre
A subdivision of a genre of literature, music and film.
Narrative
Story is a sequence of events, often referred to as the plot. A narrative structure is the way those events are revealed to the audience. A linear narrative is the sequence of events are shown in chronological order. This is the most popular form of narrative structure. And finally a non-linear is the sequence of events are revealed out of the expected order, for example the pulp fiction.

The Art of the Title
The art of the title is a website dedicated to the analysis of title sequences. It has the title of the movie, images of the title sequence, a video of the title sequence and an article about the title sequence.
Images of the title sequences
This is what you see when you first open the website it brings you to a title sequence this one is for "Trainspotting" if you click on the image it takes you to the video of the title sequence shown. If you click "view article", it will take you to a new page with the article for the title sequences.
This is the article for "Trainspotting" you can click to find out about the writer and editor of the article. Also to the sides of the article it gives you info about the film e.g. the director.
I-Robot
I feel that the title sequence for this film is very relevant and explains key aspects of the film in an easy text based way right at the start. However, the title sequence it does not really give too much away just enough to peak the audience's interest without spoiling the entire movie. The title sequence is one that holds a lot of the plot in it so cannot be overlooked or else the rest of the movie won't make all that much sense.
