The biggest difference of watchthetitles.com was that it featured many more film title creators than the first website.

The first title displayed is the name of the production studio that made the movie. the next titles shown are the names of the staff that produced the movie. After the staff, the title of the movie appears. Following the title of the film, even more staff names appear. - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence? The beginning of the title sequence shows foggy shots of the surrounding area. Then, we are shown a woman running through an obstacle course in the middle of the forest. Shots of the forest are prioritized over the obstacle course. After the initial credits, the woman goes into a building and the images switch form the empty forest to a lively building. The building is full of people doing different activities. - What connotations do these images carry? The images of the fog convey an ominous tone. The images of the large and mostly empty forest convey a sense of foreboding because it is un...
