Title sequence analysis/comparison

We watched the opening sequence to 'Se7en'. In this the titles are hand written and this is the type of titles we were thinking to do for out project, however the names are written quite small, our group are thinking of having the credits larger and easier to read. The clips shown during the credits are of unclear sequences of events involving things being manipulated by hands, with no images of faces or other body parts. This is most probably clips of the antagonist's hands as they were first being shown having their fingertips removed so it was easier to get away with the crimes he later commits.



The music in Se7en is very mechanic in sound and gave an added eerie sense to the opening credits. For our opening, we are thinking about using faster paced music but hopefully still making it eerie.

The camera in this jumps and goes blurry slightly at points and this adds effect to the thriller feel of the film. In ours though, we're aiming to do the credits during an actual chase scene and have the credits just appear on everyday things and a gun bullet. This is to just keep the film going, and not have a pause for the credits. We feel this will add more suspense and curiosity to the 2 minutes.
