Title sequence of The Pink Panther (1963)
The Pink Panther is an animated character that I like very much. When I was young, one of my favorite cartoons was the Pink Panther.
I like this title sequence very much. Regarding the animation part, I felt the naughty of the pink panther. For example, it turns Robert Wagner's name and takes that "name wheel" to leave the scene. The Pink Panther wanted to lean on the character, but fell over because the character suddenly disappeared. When the Pink Panther introduced the characters related to the production of the film, it carried a pink paint bucket and a paintbrush and wrote "and the Pink Panther" in the blank space. I remember that the Pink Panther would whistle and leaned forward when he saw a beautiful opposite sex. When introducing "Claudia Cardinale as the princess", it did just that. Maybe someone wanted to make the Pink Panther sober, so Claudia Cardinale's hand suddenly hit it to the ground. When the pink panther in a tuxedo wanted to conduct music, it was pulled away by a crutch. Such funny animated scenes make me feel very cute, and also give me some basic understanding of the character of the pink panther. I think the most powerful part of the animation is when the pink panther stretched out his paw and wrote his name in the credit section of screen play, but it was hit by a hammer and made the sound "OW". And then the name of the producer whose name ends with the letter ow. This connection is so good and creative that I like it very much.
Regarding music, as a loyal fan of the Pink Panther, I am very familiar with this music. This music is the representative music of the Pink Panther. And when typing in gloves and the Pink Panther, there is also a typing sound in the music. When the glove hits the pink panther with a hammer, when the pink panther is shot by a gun, the sound of the crash cymbal in the music and the scene are very harmonious.
Regarding the color of the title sequence, I think the producer has a design idea for the color of the scene. For example, the colors of most scenes in the video are warm colors, except for the colors used for the director, scene layout, makeup, etc., which are introduced later. In the scene where the Pink Panther appears, although the scene is red or pink, the pink on the Pink Panther must be the most obvious.
In the final animation scene, the glove punishes the Pink Panther for not naming it properly and scares it with a pistol. But the Pink Panther snatched the pistol. In their confrontation, the Pink Panther was shot at the end. After the explosion, the scene darkened, leaving the pink panther's yellow bloodshot eyes. Its eyes gradually enlarged. I can see its fatigue and pain through the eyes of the Pink Panther. In the long chasing and fighting between the Pink Panther and the glove, the Pink Panther was still the loser. I feel sad about this "end", but I also think this video is very funny.
In short, I think this title sequence is very unique, because it uses a lot of interesting animations to introduce the characteristics of the pink panther to the audience, and the audience can also learn about the production of the film by paying attention to the protagonist of the animation who is the pink panther. People and related staff. I think the effectiveness of this video is very good.
