Title Research: “The Exorcist”

Image
  What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? The title "The Exorcist" is displayed after full scenes will with credits of the actors participating. With the dark and low piano and whistle symphony increasing as the video plays on, increasing anxiousness to see what the title is. The title is shown in a white, sort of cut text for special effects. What images are prioritized in the opening sequences? Images focused on the color white with that black object in it play throughout the video until the title is shown, signalizing the dark part of it.
