Titling of Trailers: The Host & Infini
The Host
1. “The Earth is at peace, there are no wars, there is no hunger. Honesty, courtesy, kindness are practised by all. The world has never been more perfect.”
2. “It is no longer your world.”
3. “The battle for your world has ended.” (0:47)
4. “The battle for your future” (0:52)
5. “Has begun” (0:58)
6. “You will be one of us” (1:11)
7. Main title (1:10)
The titling is very stereotypically sci-fi as it has the hint of glowing blue which is used a lot in sci-fi films for their titles. The glowing effect is used in all of the titles which hints at the genre and makes the titles look futuristic. The first title starts off calmly and it makes everything seem almost too perfect but once it gets to the second title when the title says ‘it is no longer your world’ it becomes more chaotic and fast. The way the titles are written and designed, it hints that the film may be based on something that isn’t human such as an alien which hints at the sci-fi genre.
The titles help with the narrative structure of the trailer as they help the audience understand what the film is about. The titles are also quite blunt and this makes an effect on the audience and also raises enigmas to the audience as they will not be aware completely of what is happening and why the world is changing.
Infini
1. “In the dawn of the 23rd century” (0:07)
2. “The world’s highest paying jobs” (0:12)
3. “Are also the most dangerous” (0:19)
4. “Out here” (1:28)
5. “Their greatest threat” (1:31)
6. “Is each other” (1:34)
7. Main title (1:52)
The titling is also very stereotypical for sci-fi as the font looks computerised and also has the hint of glowing blue which seems to be used in most sci-fi trailers. The glowing blue effect is the same throughout all of the titles and it also makes the titles look futuristic. The way that the titles in this trailer are designed and made to look computerised to hint at sci-fi genre.
These titles in the trailer also help the audience somewhat understand the synopsis of the film. We can understand that there is some action going on and there is a threat to the world and we also learn that the film is set in the future but the titles do not tell the audience that much about the film.
