My group has had a lot of discusion about the credits as they play a vital key in the opening scene of a film. We looked at other childrens films for inspiration, Shrek had very interesting and exciting opening credits as they used the scene and the props to create the credits themselves in the animation which is more exciting for the viewers and draws instant attention to them when normally they are often ignored by the viewer.
I feel that we can use this as inspiration and interact with the credits more, in the scene when Sian and Yasmin, the two secret agents/superheros are introduced with the initial running scene as they run past the camera can freeze an action shot of them individually and have the credits animated rolling of the person; this will also help to introduce the characters.
The credits can be bold and exciting, maybe colour could be used as well to draw attention but because of the setting of the mainly green background it may be easier to use white font as this will make the credits more bold and easier to read for the viewer. This will make it mroe exciting than the credits just rolling over the screen in a list which would most probably be ignored by the viewer and disregarded. Furthermore the fonts should be very bold and more out of the ordinary and a bit more quirky.
After doing all of which has been mentioned it will add more of a finish to our opening scene and make it look a lot more professional.
