X VODCAST1: Idents, Companies, Production Context

WHAT ARE IDENTS?
  • Idents are usually placed at the beginning of a movie.  
  • These identify which companies have been involved in the making of the movie.  
  • They usually last between 4-7 seconds per ident so a total of 8-28 seconds overall.  
  • There are usually 2-4 idents before the film starts, however indie movies sometimes have none.  
  • The bigger conglomerates such as the Big 5 (Warner Bros., Paramount, NBC Universal, Sony and Walt Disney) get a lot more screen time for their idents rather than smaller junior companies.  
  • The Big 5 also usually don't have audio bridges over them.
  • Idents can be slightly altered to connote the genre of a film as well.

POSSIBLE INFLUENCES

  • Having possibly 1 or 2 idents with their own jingle
  • Having 1 ident with audio bridge to movie
  • Considering our film opening can't be that long, probably a maximum of 10 seconds per ident
  • Possibly having something altered about the ident to connote the zom-rom-com hybrid genre
