Title Designer- Wayne Fitzegerald

In the 40s, titles were very simple and they were very short, because there may have been only ten or fifteen people getting credit. But by the '50s, they were beginning to get up to 24 and 25 and most things, of course, were terrible boring and the audience went and get their popcorn while the credit were on.
30 people who worked at Pacific Title, half of them were title artists, since everything was handwritten.
Jack Warner wanted title to be big. Jack Warner said ' i'm paying those actors all that money, i want to see their names up there big'. This looked awful on the screen.
Credits were in pink except the actual title 'Auntie Mame'. I like how the sequence is eye catching and not very long.
