Top 10 Title Sequences of 2016

The Very Best Title Sequences of 2016, as chosen by Art of the Title


For our third annual list of the year’s top 10 title sequences, Art of the Title’s editors chose from among work created for film, television, video games, exhibitions, and conferences. The Top 10 of 2016 were chosen based on criteria including originality and innovation, impact, atmosphere, relevance to the larger work, and technique.

Starting in late 2015, we began formally cataloguing title sequences for the year and by the end of December 2016 we had assembled a huge long list for consideration. Paring the long list down from 107 to just 10 was a difficult task, but it was a process we relished. These title sequences were painstakingly crafted, acted, shot, animated, composited, typeset, modeled, frozen, blown up, and hand-drawn by teams large and small all around the world, with budgets modest and mighty, in state-of-the-art facilities and in home studios. So sit back, relax, and enjoy some of the most interesting and innovative work to hit screens this year. These sequences represent the cream of the crop – be sure to hit the full screen buttons for the best viewing experience!
