What is a title sequence?

Movie title sequences can often be the most important part of a film. Setting the tone, atmosphere and characters for the audience, the opening credits can either make or break an opening scene.
A title sequence is the method by which films or television programs present their title, key production and cast members, or both, utilizing conceptual visuals and sound. It usually follows but should not be confused with the opening credits, which are generally nothing more than a series of superimposed text.
