- "Vertigo" (1958)
- The film Vertigo uses a unique opening credit scene that contributes to the dizzying motion that goes along with Vertigo's theme. Involving spiraling patterns that are perfectly set to aid the film's key of obsession and vertigo itself. The intense, shifting of colorful geometric pattern are combined with the haunting swirls that are in the opening credits which create a sense of hypnotic discomfort towards the audience. The text along with the music and scenes, immediately immerse the audience/viewers into a state of mystery and danger which sets the narrative into a spiral of madness and the illusion of "vertigo"
Opening Credit scenes-
-"Se7en" (1995)
- The film Se7en contains a different more vital form of credits that establish the films dark and gritty tone along with giving the audience a sense of paranoia immediately, immersing more viewers into the distorted visuals and frenetic editing. The flickering text used for the credits act ass a unsettling introduction to the atmosphere of the opening credits. The industrial design used to portray ths sequence, makes the film feel more personal and natural rather than being digitally made which reflects on the intensity of the hard work displayed as well as the character (the killer's) personal nature.
Opening Credit scenes-
-"Sherlock Holmes" (2009)
- The film Sherlock Holmes is vastly different since its credits are issued toward the end of the film, yet it immediately closes with a tense and fast-paced scene for the credits, which helps see their interpretation of the character himself. The opening helps visualize Holmes' Intellect with the use of slow-motion and tactical sequences as well as the text that assures the viewer that the character is a highly successful and intelligent being. The essence merges the era of a detective with the style of oddness and rational sense for the end credits.
