Learning Objective
Pupils should learn
that:
• Title sequences identify the text and ‘sell’ it to audiences; they may be very explicit about the text’s genre, content, audience and purpose or they may disguise this to provoke curiosity.
• Information about who made a text, who financed it, and who owns it, can alert you to the interests it represents – and those it may not represent, or may misrepresent.
• Many roles may contribute to the production of a moving image text and can affect its content, style and meaning.
• A moving image text is likely to be produced by one company and distributed by another.
