Film title analyses

 The  Girl With The Dragon Tattoo -


In the opening title sequence for the girl with the dragon tattoo it show various images and short animations in relation to the characters actions or personalities. The sequence is majorly black and white with little use of colour. The main colour used in the sequence and is used to emphasize the heat of the fire shown and is used in contrast to the rest of the clip.
The use of animals in the sequence can be used to describe some of the characters animalistic-like nature. This title sequence influence ours by the way it uses the absence of colour to create a sense of mystery and intrigue the audience.
 
 28 Weeks Later -
 The 28 Weeks Later title is made up of mainly red and black. The red background shows the film to be dangerous, gory by the shade of red being similar to blood. The background also has black cracks which could represent that the film will take place in a populated, industrious area. The black hazard sign symbolizes the film being about an infection or some sort of medical emergency. This film title influenced our film because of the way it uses different colours to put across danger/ fear and make it relate to a particular environment.


30 Days Of Night -

















 The opening title sequence to 30 Days Of Night shows birds eye views of the area where the film is going to take place. This adds a sense of scale and due to the film being set in Antartica, isolation. The shots show information about the city and how it relates to the film title before fading to a black screen with the title. The sudden fade to a black screen can put across the absence of life in the film. This film title sequence influenced our film by showing that birds eye view shots can show a films location and the meaning behind the film by only showing a certain location, e.g.: the use of birds eye view shots in the sequence are used to emphasize isolation.
