Thriller Titles

We are going to embed the titles within the long establishing shot at the beginning of the sequence. The editing speed of this will be fairly quick to impose the feeling of intensity and threat, and to make the introduction fast moving.
The titles themselves will be on top of a black background in what we hope is a thriller style font, that will be in white and slightly fading into the black background. Between the establishing shots and the titles, the screen will be fading to black to show the titles, and fade back from the titles and black background into the establishing shot again. We plan to immitate this editing effect with the music building up and getting louder as the transition takes place to show the titles, and as the sequence returns to the establishing shot the music will quieten and receed.
We got this idea from the film 'Heat' and we will be basing our titles sequence on this.
