The Orphanage
Titles- The film starts and then shows the titles and credits then goes back to the film.
The hands that tear back the wallpaper are small child like hands which makes us think that it is children pulling it back.
For the first part of the credits it's only one hand pulling back the wallpaper but at one point there are about 5 or 6 showing that they are working together.
Mise En Scene- The wallpaper is very old which shows it's probably set in the earlier days because no days orphanages/care homes would be bright and colourful with things such as cartoons on the walls for the children.
It seems quite institutional as it's dark and gloomy.
Also the childrens clothes are very bland, dark and plain which also shows how old fashioned it is as now days children would wear whatever clothes they want rather than having a uniform, and this also relates back to the title and credits because you can see the childrens arms.
Because they have already seen the children and the uniforms you can tell that they are the orphans as you can see the uniform on the childrens arms.
Music/SFX- The music is very emphasized in places such as when the credits are revealed to show them up more and draw your attention to them. Also the music has a very sinister feel to it.
Lighting- They have shadows of the childrens hands on the wallpaper when they are about to rip off the wallpaper they could be reaching out for eachother as in one part they look like they are trying to hold on to one another. This shows that people could be working together or trying to save someone.
Old Boy
Titles- There is a mixture of titles and credits that are on the image and off the image. The credits are on the images and then carry on off the image going into the titles.
Music- The music is upbeat but has a slight creepy tone to it giving it a slight chill.
There is sound effects of a cuckoo clock which also gives off a scary feeling.
There is a clock ticking noise that happens but it's all disorientated giving it a uneasy feel.
Credits- the credits when its on the moving image some of them turn like the hands on a clock then when the credits change to the next ones the letters change as if they are the letters on a board at the airport or train station.
The hands on the clock start going forwards then start going backwards giving it a freaky and scary feeling.
Five days
Titles- It starts off with different images with the credits going over them to then end up with the title over an image.
Credits- The credits come in blurred and then go into focus whislt slowly floating across the screen to then fade out and then repeat to the next set of credits.
Then for the title it comes up blurred with the image and then focuses to then have the word 'Five' and the 's' on the end of 'days' blur out and the 's' is then blurred into the number 1.
Lighting- The lighting is quite dark throughout giving the credits a nice background to go onto as they are a light colour so it stands out.
Around the images it is blurred leaving you to focus on the middle part of the clip and the credits.
When the image fades out and goes blurry it then still shows blurred lights of the next part of the clip so something is always going on and it doesn't just go to black and then go into the next part.
This makes it flow nicely and keeps your attention.
Music- The music is dark and chilling with a nice hard beat which could possibly seem as if a heart is beating.
Also in the middle there is a part that sounds as if it is from the thriller 'Phsyco' but has been adapted a bit giving it a more chilling feeling.
True Blood
Credits- The opening credits are over a moving image and the title ends on a moving image.
The credits are quite small and in a light colour which they place over dark parts of the image.
However sometimes it is on a lighter part of the image making it harder to read.
The font sizes are all differnt making it seem dis-organised and quirky.
The title ends up on a red background making it stand out and grab your attention.
Music- The music is upbeat but if you listen to the lyrics and know the series then you will understand that it has a meaning and relates to the episode.
Lighting- The lighting changes throughout the opening because some parts are dark and give off a grusome feeling but others are light.
This may show two differnt sides as in a good and bad side because of the colours and lighting change between each part.
However the writting of the credits stay the same throughout.
Casino Royal
Credits-The credits come up with a moving image almost straight away.
The credits are white and are placed on bold, blank parts of the image so they show up clearly and stand out.
They quickly fade on then fade off again after a few seconds then move on.
Some of the credits look as if they are being typed on a computer as if for a file or something of that sort.
The title is the number 7 card which then gets shot twice leaving 0 shapes before the 7 which ends up as 007 which is when it then goes into the typing.
Music- The music starts off slightly slow but then builds up into a quick and upbeat tune giving it a sence of urgency then it goes back to being all serene and mysterious.
Other- In places it shows the view of someone firing a gun so you can see the guns point of target which then turns into a roulette wheel.
At the beginning it also has he same symbols in patterns which then start changing and rotating making it look like a calidescope.
Also it shows guns being fired and instead of a bullet it shows yet again the card symbols such as a heart or the spade.
This gives the impression that the film includes alot of gambling perhaps in the way of money or with peoples lives.
