Analysis of the opening titles in seven

When analysing the opening titles of Seven, there is a mixture of titles on a black background and moving image. The font of the titles is white and looks like hand writing. This is in-keeping with the horror genre as the handwriting looks creepy and links to the narrative behind the titles where a character is looking through an old book and remove some of their skin with a razor blade. I like the combination of the titles fading to a black background and the moving image of the opening. We could consider using this combination in our opening two minutes. It is important to consider the colour of the font and whether it would stand out against the background. In seven it was effective to use white font and a black  background, however if we use white titles we need to make sure it stands out on the moving image. Seven split the screen and included moving image with a black corner where the titles were placed; this was effective and ensured that the titles stood out. However this might be hard to create and we would need to practise creating this on Adobe premier elements.
