Catch me if you can analysis (typography)

The film for me straight away triggered a connection towards the series of be-witched which had the same style of music as well as the slight geometrical shavings in which the be-witched opener had. I suppose the style of transition of the titles flying in and moving into the screen - the flying of the lines emulated the flying of the witch of the broom which was my initial reaction. The transitions was very smooth and classy which had the impression that the film was going to sophisticated, possibly even a hint of what the audience profiling would be like.
The characters held the iconography which gave the impression that there was once again this occurring thematic of sophistication and possibly a sense of ambiguity into the actual career the protagonist embodies throughout the film.

The typography of the title "Catch me if you can" gave once again this fluid sense of continuity and cohesion of the opening title sequence. The lexis "me" was in a font which embodied the style of a cloud giving the impression that plane movement and transport is to occur within the film possibly even a chase between rivals. It also gave the impression of lightness a sense of a hidden identity possibly as the cloud was almost merging with the blue sky background.

The stylish feel of the film slight reinforced that the characters was likely to be chic and at the top of the field of profession they enrolled in which was also, indicated through the jazz music which is usually associated with the 60's and meeting a lady in which was likely to become an equated female in the future. This narrative was touched upon when it evidently had the scene in which had a man enter a black room full of women around the side. The fact that the scene was lack once again touched upon the thematic of secrecy in the film. This referenced the theory by Laura Mulley and the Male gaze as, the females although ''cartoon-like'' had short pink dresses on suggesting that the purpose was to catch males attention.

There was an obvious influence within the film and it has to be Saul Bass. Bass's famous hallmarks which are evident in his work seemed to be there: the geometrical shapes placed in the formation of characters was evident and emulated the opening title sequence Bass made for Vertigo. Other attributes which gave the indication that Bass's work had influenced the making process, the colour choice hinted this as they were blues, reds and oranges.

The opening title sequence also incorporated the two types of font. Sans Serif and serif. Serif was present on the word ''present'' and sans serif was evident on the other entire font giving a continuous and cohesive feel to the opening title sequence.

The movement of the font and the fact that it came in slowly and gracefully gave the impression that a chase is to occur-it slightly referenced the Pink Panther opening title sequence. The lines looked like a ''type-writer'' sensing that it might be an iconographical aspect and backing up the contextual era of the 60's.
