Placement of text

Title sequence 2.45 sec Its similar to ‘segoe script’

Black Its animated Everywhere on the screen according to the visuals

It would establish the character and possibly what she would be thinking by showing it on the opening sequence

If its longer than 3 min the audience would get bored easily

Its not a serious font, because its wiggling looking font

It would contrast with the animation in the background

The audience would enjoy it more and its also a teen theme

Possibly to guide the audience where to look, if the text is on the bottom left, it would direct the audience to look there
