Se7en Opening Credits



The opening credits of Se7en are very well done. However we don't want to just make a copy of the title sequence because that is a mistake that other groups have made before. We are only going to be using some of the ideas from the opening sequence. For example I really like the way that the credits appears on the screen, because they don't just sit there on a black background but instead they come in while a frame is starting to fade out and then they move around the page and distort. We want to use this effect in our thriller opening because it will fit well.

The sound in the opening of Se7en is very interesting but I don't think that they are very bold and interesting. One aspect I really like is the industrial feel that it has. I think that an industrial type of soundtrack will sound very good and go well with the feel and the images that we are using in our thriller opening sequence.

I also like the randomness of the images in the opening credits because it makes you think of what the film is going to be about and how they will link to the film. The opening sequence is also very edited and I really like that kind of look, because it makes it look more modern.

The Clockwork Orange opening sequence is also extremely good and this uses old fashioned kinda look but with a sort of modern twist. My opinion is that the Clockworks Orange intro is better because it make the film look more psychotic and that is what I want to achieve from my thriller opening sequence.

As you can see from our animatic we are using the same camera shots as in the Clockwork Orange intro and this is because of the psychotic look that we are trying to achieve. We are also going with the head shacking with makes the view disorientated. We have done some test footage but are currently in the middle of editing at the moment. We will upload this test footage later on.

Over and out.
