Analysis of 'the Incredibles'


The incredible a title sequence is a cartoon animation, through out the title sequence the animation continues but the animation becomes extremely fast so the animation looks almost like shapes. This gives the audience the genre of the film straight away; action and adventure and the target audience being children.  The use of bright colours such as red and orange is associated with 'danger' and that ties in with the genre of the film.

Throughout the title sequence the music is kept fast and up beat, this can give viewers an exciting feel to the film. The shots are shown short and quick and in each shot their is a different character pulling a fighting pose, and this could relate to children's books, the one image on each page. By doing this it is showing the viewers the main characters and their different powers that might come with the film, also the characters are pulling a 'punching' pose that ties in with the connotations of a action and adventure film. You also see the villain throughout the shots and this also reinforces the genre of the film.

The typography of this film is big and bold ' The Incredibles '; this is common in a lot of super hero films as it sticks out and gives the impression that because the font it capitalised it could be seen as strong and this gives the typical 'superhero' look, where superheroes are made out to be big and strong. The directors names and other characters in the film have been placed into bold and solid typography, the way the writing is slightly slanted gives an impression of fast movement and this could also show that the characters are always out doing things and like to get things completed fast.
