  • Intro Text vs. VoiceOver Narration.

    Is one preferred more than another?

    Two examples:

    Bladrunner - Uses a crawling Text intro (is that way in the script as well):

    The Big Lebowski - Uses a V.O. narration intro (is that way in the script as well):

    You know Jill you remind me of my mother. She was the biggest whore in Alameda and the finest woman that ever lived. Whoever my father was, for an hour or for a month, he must have been a happy man.

    I would say the scrawl only if extensive context is needed on the setting a la Star Wars or Blade Runner. VO narration if the script centers on a very quirky, unique character a la Forrest Gump or Big Lebowski

      That's a pretty good view. Thanks Cyfress.
