I probably look at thousands of pictures every week, the evidence is on my visual stimulation page. I saw a few intermission and end screens and immediately I was drawn to them. Mostly it’s the pointlessness of them, the need to cue the viewer (or we could say User) that the movie is over is completely unnecessary. It reminds me of when “Welcome” or “Splash Screens” were common place in web design. Welcome to our website … obviously it’s a website, I’m on my computer, I entered the URL or googled the name … pointless screens.
I strive for simplicity, I truly believe that simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication. These screens are beautiful, albeit unnecessary & I love them.
