The first six shots of titling includes the production/ distribution companies. It then repeats the title but in a different format without the logo and is placed on top of people hugging. The fifth title states that 'love actually is all around' and then the sixth shot shows the audience the title of the film. This title has a black background making the audience focus on the title and the red colour on love. This red colour symbolizes love and passion whilst the white colour on the word 'actually' suggest innocence and hope.
The next six shots include the names of those acting in this film and each beginning letter of the name is red whilst the rest is white. The representation of these colours are the same as the title but because only one letter is red this shows that they're no one in the movie has a main part and that they all have equal screen time. These titles are placed on top of a guy in the recording studio, although we don't know what type of character he is playing, the mise-en-scene suggest that maybe he's someone famous and adored.
The last six shots in the titling sequence lists more actors/ actresses and who created the movie e.g. casting, music, producers. The first shot shows the audience a Christmas tree and the title says 5 weeks to Christmas, this clearly states what time of year it is. It then moves onto establishing, close-ups and mid shots. They are placed on screen during a dialogue scene too.
