Opening Thriller Sequence Research: Pulp Fiction

Pulp Fiction

The opening for this film starts with a short scene with two characters who we assume will be important in the film, before the credits themselves begin.


This scene lasts for just under fifteen seconds. The last frame of the scene is held as the soundtrack starts to play, before the screen cuts to black.
 
The title of the film pans in from the bottom of the screen before being positioned in the centre of the screen. The font is bold and colourful, which seems to link with the upbeat soundtrack that is playing over the top. The title stays here for about a second, before it slowly starts shrinking backwards for credits to appear over the top.
 
The credits stay central for over half of the opening, before they start to appear grouped. When this occurs, they appear like the title did in the beginning, simply rising upwards from the bottom of the screen.
