Pre-Production Opening Institutional Credits

I have been looking through the opening sequence 'The Shining', I then created a time line to show when exactly the opening credits and title appeared. I also added a time line for when the music started and stopped for the opening.

I found out from this opening sequence that the credits and title did not appear until half way through the actual opening sequence at around about 1.05 seconds into the piece. Also I was only doing my time line up to 2 minutes and so I made a note on the bottom of my times line some of the institutional credits added after 2 minutes. I did not know what it meant by the term 'screen play' and so I looked on google in order to research it and found out that it means the script for a movie, including descriptions of scenes and some camera directions. I also looked up what it meant by the term executive producer just to be clear and so I found out that it means a producer who is not involved in any technical aspects of the film making or music process, but who is still responsible for the overall production. Typically an executive producer handles business and legal issues.
