Title Sequence Timeline

Title sequences often come in a certain order....
The production company always comes first



Then the director is shown, this could be as a sort of peacock-esque strut of the 'mastermind' behind the movie to be shown. Almost like an animal urinating on their territory.

(Disclaimer: John Hughes is a mastermind.)

 

The director is often followed by the Title of the film, to tell the audience what they're watching and then the titles proceed the list of actors starring in the film.
