Analysis of previous HH opening title sequence

 Analysis of Chrysalis


I really liked this opening title sequence because of the simplicity of it. The use of lights, fog and hands pushing against a clear material create a uneasy atmosphere because it gives the impression that someone is trying to escape. The intensity of it starts relatively slow and builds when the lights start flashing and the fog appears which makes the scene more chaotic this then settles when they start breaking out of the shell they seem to be in. I like that there was variation in intensity because it keeps the audience engaged. Even though this one was part of the 'thriller' section I think it comes off as more scifi which I prefer to horror or thriller. I especially love the use of lights, I think when natural lighting is used outside for example the filming ends up looking like amateur work so I prefer when colours are used or filters are placed over the images because it will be what the audience members are used to seeing. I'm  not sure if I prefer the title to come at the begining or the end because if it came at the start then the audience will be able to have a rough idea of what the genre might be like but if it came at the end then it would keep them guessing so I'm not sure where I stand on that. I enjoy scifis but I think for my opening title scene I would prefer to do something, not neccissarily real as it could have supernatural elements like witches, but more real world and not in the studio but I would definitely change the colour of the shots somehow.
