Title sequence inspiration

After much contemplation, our group has decided to add our titles in post-editing. We figured it would suit the film genre slightly more than filming the titles in the real world, which is more typically associated with comedy or indie films such as Napoleon Dynamite shown below:



However, rather than just having our titles roll across, or fade in and out of the screen, we would like to use elements in our setting to make the sequence a little more interesting.

We have looked at a few examples of this which we really like, such as the opening sequence of Six Feet Under:



The opening sequence for Dexter really inspired our group in producing our own sequence too. We plan to use close ups to create intimacy, and an uncomfortable viewing experience for our audience - Dexter is a great example of how our close ups could be shot incorporating the titles:


Although both of these sequences are for TV series', we think adding our titles in, in a similar way would be much more appealing for our audience while maintaining a sequence reflective of our film genre.
