Research in Film Openings

I have chosen the opening sequence for Fresh Meat and Misfits. The reason for this is that I hope to pull off something similar to their title sequences as the words aren't physically there but they are corresponding to the image behind them. I hope to animate my text so that it isn't boring and just overlapping the image behind it. It would be much better to animate the text making it lively and catching the audience's attention.

Here is one example:

FRESH MEAT Titles from MOMOCO Film Titles on Vimeo.

Notice how the text is intarracting with the image, for example the TV is showing an actors name while the radio appears to be tuning in to a station but again it's an actors name as though it where a station. This inspires me to make my own titles a bit like this following specifc colour schemes and such.

Unfortunantly I cannot get the Misfits opening sequence as it has been copyrighted on youtube and I can't find it anywhere else.

However in the sequence the text again are used in harmony with the image behind them for example an actor is running and as he runs past the titles appear behind him. The titles themselves are in a grimey font as thought they have being spray painted again this works with the context of the show.
