What is included?
A series of edited photos are included. The photos are usually 2 photos combined together and both low in opacity so you can see both images at the same time. This could suggest that things need to be solve deeply to find the truth. There isn't any transitions between each photo therefore it could connote that being a detective is something quite straight forward and they need to follow certain rules.
What font/colours used and why?
The titles are in dark brown or white depending on what colour background it is on. For example, if the background is dark then they would use white whereas when the background is light they would use dark brown. They have done this because it is easier to see what it said when the colours contrast among each other. They have used sans serif font and that tells me it is about a serious topic and it is targeted at a older audience. This further contribute to the detective theme since it is very straight forward and neat.

What is included?
A lot of animations and drawings are included. They have created it to be a bit like a marvel comic with the bright, bold colours. It change to a different title/slide by using different effects like swipe screen, moving to the side and a character pops up or something slowly zooming out. A cartoon version of the character often moves and then freezes before the name of the actors are shown. In between a few names, they have included some animated screens to make it less boring to watch.
What font/colours used and why?
The font used is very 3D, bubble writing-like and that could give the impression that it's not a very serious movie and suitable for younger audiences. The style is also very comic and cartoon-like, which further suggests it is a PG movie. The colours used are mainly primary colours and that can be seen as adventurous - stands out well and catches people's attention.
