Se7en

The opening scene to the horror film Se7en



This opening scene fits its genre of horror in that, the music used is quite eery as is the writing chosen for the credits. The writing looks as though it has been roughly written, almost childlike , implying impatience or insanity. I really like the closeness of the shots as it doesnt allow you to get the whole picture, relating to the film in that you don't completely understand it until the very end. I also like the way the clips are moved into one another, and the flickering makes it feel quite unsettling, and is similar to the old film reels. Overall, I think this opening gives a strong first impression of the film, and shows the nature of it effectively.
