Kyle Cooper? Legend. Se7ven

This is one of the famous, successful and talented graphic design artists. He creates opening sequences for film and many other things. 

 


Se7ven Opening Sequence
 




I can safely say that this opening sequence drags you in, it makes shivers go up your spine. It displays the mood you are going to feel throughout the fantastic thriller. The start of this discussion has to talk about the text Cooper uses, it is almost looks like it is hand writing, but is rigid. The font almost looks like the letters have been scratched into the screen, which relates to torture which is what this film is mostly about. The strong and distinctive music as ell plays a massive part on the mood, it draws you into every single shot, makes you hooked but uneasy, wanting to turn away from the screen, yet you find yourself struggling to do so. It is loud and very powerful.

As for the shots themselves, they tell a story themselves. They are scary, like the shot of the young boys face being drawn on, the photograph, its is daunting.



The shot of the 'boys' face is scribbled, it makes the shot horrifying. Also it comes very fast so you it basically flashes quickly in your face.
