Se7en
Costumes:
No actual person shown in the titles. Bandages on hands.
Lighting:
Low key, very dark and grimy. Possibly a mixture or natural artificial. The colours have obviously had their saturation lessened so the colours are not as bright as they could be. The only colours that really pop are red, yellow, black and white.
Titles/Credits:
Handwritten in a messy font. However, there are some flashes of Arial font which have a grainy overlay to keep in key with the distressed look of the opening as well as the movie.
Camera Angles:
The camera angles are mostly low angle and focus on the turning of pages and an individual doing various things in the construction of a scrapbooks. There are extreme close-ups of his hands, a sewing needle and tweezers. Also, the opening ends with an establishing shot of New York city.
Cuts:
Quick cuts transition one distressing image to another, along with the flash of white, scribbly letters and numbers and a black background for some of the titles, as though the movie has been made on standard 35mm film. There is also a fade from black for some clips and an overlay transition at 0:28 where a textbook is being opened, and the image fades onto a hand twitching over another book, cast in shadow.
Technical Specs:
A lot of the title sequence effects and overlays have been added on in the editing progress. it would be wise for me to look for a variety of plug-in if I wish to do a similar style of title sequence for my thriller.
Sound:
Soundtrack - Closer to God (Precursor) by Nine Inch Nails
