In my opinion the title sequence of se7en is uncomfortable
to watch. The music creates this
industrial type psychopath feeling which synchronies with the images being
shown. We see things like pages being turned, somebody writing, rusty old
looking needles, a dirty pair of hands, deformed pictures of things being cut
etc. This is then constantly crosscutting with the names of the actors in the
scene with a scratchy small font. Only very boring colours are used such as
black, whites, beiges and greys and then quickly flashes of bright red come in
which can signify danger. From the way the title sequence is done it suggests
that the film could be a psychological thriller because of the uncomfortable
feeling that it gives you but at the same time you want to watch more.
Panic Room
The opening title sequence of the film Panic Room is started
with the sound of a busy city, police sirens going off and the sounds of
traffic. Then the kind of dark menacing music starts at a fast pace, together
with the sound of the busy city suggesting a rushed atmosphere. The names of
the actors are then shown alongside buildings which I think work nicely. The
rushed atmosphere is then empathized with the ticking of a loud clock.
