In films there are title sequences and trailers, and people often get mistaken as to which is which. however, once you know the difference you will never get them mistaken again.
Trailer- in a trailer, this is where you watch a montage of the clips which it's main attempt is to grab the readers attention and draw the viewers into wanting to watch the film. however, the creators of the trailer may not have any other part of the actual film, as the trailer is like a separate art. Although the idea of a trailer is to inform you about the film, it does not want to reveal the whole film or spoil the story line to the audience as if you reveal to much then they don't even need to watch the film. The trailer needs to also reveal the rough story line, so that it makes the audience want to watch it.
Opening sequence- an opening sequence is similar to a trailer however in many ways it is different. In an opening sequence the idea is to draw the viewer in to the film so they want to carry on watching the film. if the opening sequence is poor people may just turn it off. Although the opening sequence is slower paced, it still does need to reveal some important information like maybe a bit of background information about the character. Or sometimes, the opening sequence can be the most action packed part of the film like a death or something, and then the majority of the film is about why the death happened.
