Seven Opening Sequence

Starts off with an exteme close-up, and music that builds up suspence. The way the names appear is creative, and the handwriting used is appropiate.

It shows a character doing unusual things to himself. This could make the viewer question why. It then shows the character writng inside a book that could be a journal. This could easily make the viewer question what is being written down. Images of people being abused is also being placed inside the book. This could give an idea about the character being a murderer and keeping a record about the killings.

The opening sequence does introduce a sense of the theme. This could make the audience feel like they can guess the film story line.

I think the sounds in the background are suitable for the theme, and the actions that is going on.

The editing of the opening sequence was done well because at times it makes the image become double which is special effects. The sound makes the viewer feel as if the are being builed up to something. This builds up suspense, which could get the audience excited, and carry on watching.

The opening titles are displayed in a way that has been edited. Almost as if it is flashing. I think that is cool.
