This sequence of titles is done in a very quick and stylish way. We begin to transition from the opening scene throughout the sound of a radio broadcaster. The iconic Little Green Bag song begins to play as the main characters are all captured in slow-motion walking down a street with 'A film by Quentin Tarantino' appearing. This sequence is very famous and it wastes no time as the camera cuts to quick close ups, highlighting the individual main characters with the actors names appearing underneath. Once the shot is finished, the title appears slides up onto the screen. The screen then goes black as supporting crew members begin to slide up onto the screen. all of this is kept in time with the music and all of the titles are kept in a bold yellow font. This continues until the song ends with the producers name appearing onscreen and then we are transitioned much later into the action of the plot.
