Opening Sequence: Se7en

An extremely clever set of opening credits which, in many ways shares techniques shown in my earlier clip taken from 'Requiem for a Dream.' I haven't yet seen the film and Se7ens opening credits are highly effective in sparking curiosity in the audience and creating enigma. The credits are classic yet at the same time do not conform to the 'rules'; they are black and white but move around and switch colour places regularly. My earlier clip and this one are similar in the way that they show lots of close up images that the audience don't understand and will only find out how they are relevant by watching the film. The music used is modern and the flickering on screen disorientates the audience.
A highly effective opening sequence...
