titles (charlie)


Seven: These titles consist of letter over moving images edited in to montage. 


 

These titles give away the character to be quite obsessive as it shows images of him working in a precise manner. As though it was planned.

The text is constantly changing font throughout. Two main fonts are a hand written font :

 and a slightly smudged, doubled over text that is reminiscent of a typewriter which could suggest that the character is quite old fashioned.
The non-diegetic is contrapuntal to the on screen action. It is a nine inch nails and sound metallic and industrial, quite the opposite to the scrap book being created. This gives the film a very eery mood and is tension building.

The cuts, the screen flickering and dissolves go in time with the music. 


Sweeney Todd: 

Non-diegetic consists of a large church organ playing. This gives a Gothic dark mood which links with the dark themes with in the movie.

The titles are white and fall over a dark backgrounds and images of london in rain as a fore grounding for the rest of the film:






Red slowly becomes a more prominent colour through out the sequence ( above in rain drop). This hints at the blood and murder of the story.

Machinery is then present. This could be interpreted as a metaphor for Victorian London and the blood that trickles through it links with the ideas that is put forward in the film.

 The name Sweeney Todd appears in blood red on screen.

The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy:

Starts with the narrator talking over a small screen. making the introduction make the audience feel like they are on the outside looking in. 

The titles are white and are set over dolphins, which had been the main part of the aforementioned narrative, swimming around.

The Non-diegetic over the top is a song based on a recurring line in the series "so long and thanks for all the fish" and it is discusses the apocalypse that is the basis of the story.
