Credit Sequences
Seven Pounds: This film sticks to a very traditional kind of style which shows the credits being displayed on a black screen while in between all the shots of the main character. In the drama genre, the black screen is very important because it develops this pause the viewers are forced to take to think.

Juno: The credits in this film are use a "cut out" style, meaning that the text appear as if they were cut off from a newspaper or magazine of some sort. This makes the font look very uneven and messy which helps represent the film by using the credits. The messyness of the credits tell the viewer a lot about the main character already, making them appear messy, creative, all over the place.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower: The credits of this film are placed in lower corner of the frame while the characters are in the car. This is done to make the viewer pay more attention to the characters than the credits. The letters also appear to be transparent so you can slightly see things through them like the lights from the city. The letters are also in all lowercase which is very important as it represents the sadness and intimacy in the film.
