Title sequence

Other the past two lessons we have been looking at examples of unique and different Title Sequences, this is so we have decent ideas for when we have to create a title sequence for our thriller opening. We looked at films such as Seven and The Panic Room and The opening sequence of 'Seven' sets a scene off mystery as the music is set to a smooth tone of a two beat continious cycle. The filming is deliberately shaky and poor, this could be to show the audience that the characters might not be in a perfect situation. The careful cutting out off pictures and words may describe that one of the characters is a very precise person, who has to do everything perfectly. The cut out pictures of dead people also adds to the idea that things may not be right, adds mystery.
The opening sequence of 'The Panic Room' is interesting as some of the names of the actors and actresses are shown before the title of the film and some more names of the actors and actresses are shown after the title of the film. Its an unconventional technique, but interesting. Also the titles are all on a backdrop off skyscrapers, and large buildings. this is clever as it fits in with the title off the film, because there are lots off rooms in skyscrapers, which fits in with the name in "panic Room"
