I recently watched the movie 'Atonement', and paid particular attention to the camera shots used. I found in one scene, there was a zooming close up of a girls face, standing looking out of a window. I thought this would be really effective in our film- in our film once the shot has been held for so long there would then be a blink, leading to a black out, and then the credit showing.
Here is the scene from the movie, with the particular shot starting at 2:02 minutes.

Another film which inspired the blackout, rolling into the credits was the opening scene from 'Good Fellas', when the man slams the boot of the car shut, and then the credits appear.
This is at about 1:55 in the link below.
