In his third book on the semiotics of title sequences, Title
Sequences as Paratexts, theorist Michael Betancourt offers an
analysis of the relationship between the title sequence and its
primary text-the narrative whose production the titles credit.
Using a wealth of examples drawn from across film history-ranging
from White Zombie (1931), Citizen Kane (1940) and Bullitt (1968) to
Prince of Darkness (1987), Mission: Impossible (1996), Sucker Punch
(2011) and Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 (2017)-Betancourt
develops an understanding of how the audience interprets title
sequences as instances of paranarrative, simultaneously engaging
them as both narrative exposition and as credits for the
production. This theory of cinematic paratexts, while focused on
the title sequence, has application to trailers, commercials, and
other media as well.
