NINE FRAMES ANALYSIS

Nine frames analysis for opening title sequence of 'The Conjuring'

From looking at these nine frames we can see a consistent structure and colour scheme to the clips shown. For example there is a constant use of black and white with only occasional glimpses of colour which highlights certain objects in the images, such as the red on the peoples coats in the far right middle frame. However the red used is faded continuing with the look of looking old and worn, and we can see that this is further enhanced by the dark lighting used throughout. It is also an example of a title sequence which is inconsistent in the use of fonts, however by doing this it demonstrates that the different newspaper articles and clips all come from different sources. The nine frames here also demonstrates a lack of narrative but instead starts to hint at the narrative by showing the genre through use of articles.

By looking at the nine frames we can also see that the faces on the clips and articles are blurred out, creating an atmosphere of mystery which matches with the music to build suspense. 

Nine frames analysis for opening title sequence of 'Creed'

The nine frames from opening of 'Creed' are contrasting to the nine frames taken from the opening of 'The Conjuring' which here shows a contrast in different genres, which by looking at I am able to take ideas in what we should use for our opening to ensure that matches our genre. Here we are able to see that there is a wider use of colour throughout apart from the end title. The title is similar to what our vision of our title is , as we want to keep it simple with just using two colours and keeping a simple font. 

Although the opening to 'Creed' also has a lack of narrative much like the conjuring, the opening consists of frames taken from the film, giving the audience an overall feel for the genre and showing them hints at plot line. 

Finally the use of sound throughout the opening builds and there is some demonstration of the use of silence at the beginning, and these are two main elements which we are keen to focus on for our opening as by doing this it begins to create atmosphere.
