Larger budget films, such as 10 Things I Hate About You and Mean Girls have more credits in their title sequences than lower budget films, such as My Brother The Devil and Beautiful Thing. The reason for this is that more major companies are able to afford the cost of crediting the members involved in the production.

Main Stream    

Mean Girls

10 Things I Hate About You

Independent 

My Brother The Devil

Beautiful Thing

In a Mainstream production title sequence I would expect to see more credits as they tend to have a higher budget for the production as it can be seen that Mean girls had a budget of $17 million. Differently an independent film will have a lower budget so therefor the title sequence will have less of a budget so less institutional information will be broadcasted.
