Thanks to the ever-trusty Guardian Guide Internet Review this weekend, Film Studies For Free found out more about a great website devoted to explorations of the beginnings of films: The Art of the Title Sequence. It's a beautifully illustrated site, discussing and streaming an abundance of examples of this Art, from the famously daring-but-coy 'zero gravity' credits from Barbarella through to the brilliant opening to Nina Paley's remarkable animated film Sita Sings the Blues (2008 - see the entire film from Paley's website, or the Internet Archive, for free; a video interview with Paley is HERE).
The Art of the Title Sequence is highly recommended. Below are some links to highlights from the website.
