Kyle Cooper's work: se7en



Seven  is a 1995 American neo-noir crime thriller film directed by David Fincher.  It tells the story of David Mills (Pitt), a young detective who is partnered with the retiring William Somerset (Freeman) and soon tasked with tracking down a serial killer (Spacey) who uses the seven deadly sins as tropes in his murders.
At the beginning of this title sequence, we see just shots of some sketches along with shots of blade. These shots do not draw any specific attention. However next shots are harder to watch, they are much more unpleasant. I think it shows the genre of the film and introduce its atmosphere. After those, the viewer will be more interested and look more carefully to find more clues.
After the title with the name of the movie, shots are becoming longer and have more information in it. We see more shots of work: how this person is cutting out and writing things. Those are close-ups, the time on this shots allows to read such words as 'non-pregnant', 'intercourse', 'transsexual', 'heterosexual' etc. Then we start to see different photos of people; children and some injured people.  All of these gives us more ideas about the plot of the film.  
The titles are mainly showed on the black screen, so they are clearly seen. They are shaky, change it place an look like handwritten. They totally suit the picture we see. 
The music is very depressive. It goes with set of different scary sounds.
