Opening credits

The opening credits of a film are shown in the following order (although can be used in various orders):

  1. The name of the studio, eg Universal, that is distributing the film 
  2. Name of the production company who has made the film
  3. Producer or directors name eg A Renny Harlin film, as in 'Cleaner'
  4. Actors names - Principle actors
  5. Film title
  6. Featuring actors
  7. Casting director
  8. Music director
  9. Production designer
  10. Editor
  11. Director of photography
  12. Co-producer / executive producer etc 
  13. Writer
  14. Director
We will have to take this into account when adding the credits to the opening sequence of our film as there are more than I had previously realised and we may need to consider when we start them in order to fit everything in the sequence.

An example of the opening credits in this order...
