The Titles Of Teen Comedies

In the film Scott Pilgrim Vs The World, the titles enter when either a shot cuts to a character, or when a character enters the frame. When the titles refer to a character they enter in a bold white font, in a black box, giving their name, age and a random fact, such as during an high angle over-the-shoulder shot of Knives looking at Kim, Kim's title says "Kim Pine, drummer, 23 years old". Also when the title credits enter, stating the distribution and production companies, it happens during a pull out, with the titles appearing on the floor in a bold white font.

When half of the actual film title appears on the screen it's in a large stylized animated font, above the performing band, it seemingly explodes on to the screen fairly quickly. This coincides with the mood of the protagonist Scott Pilgrim, as he's playing is instrument at a fast pace and is moving around on screen.

A tilt shot then introduces the rest of the title in the bold white font of the previous titles. It then cuts the actors names on different colored/stylized backgrounds, the titles appear in the bold white font and disappears during the background transitions.

The majority of title credits appear on screen as conventionally, more light hearted comedies introduce the credits during scenes, rather than cutting to a black screen.
