Conclusion about titles credits used in the sequence

The title credits should be about 2-3 seconds and may also depend on the music used. For example, if a high tempo music is playing we expect the title credits to be on the screen for less. Usually the names of the characters are the first to appear in the sequence and then followed by the producers names. The last name is usually the directors. The font style is usually simple because it should be understandable. Also, the type of credits used should depend on the genre of the film. For example, for a horror movie, credits that fade and look creepy will be the most appropriate. This is because if credits don't combine well with the scenes then it will look odd.

This credit from the 'American Horror Story' suits very well with its genre. The lighting is very effective and clearly the dark background reflects fear and silence. In addition, this is a very simple credit and i know simple and red coloured credits could be very effective especially in horror movies because it causes nervousness as the audience doesn't know what is going to appear on the screen.
