2. • One of the the Title Sequences that I
decided to analyse was from the movie
'Nerve'. I decided to analyse this title
sequence as the film very much appeals
to younger audiences and I feel as
though I would be able to pick out more
detail. This new, exceptional and
fascinating film is about an online game
that challenges players to accept a
series of dares. This then leads to many
people trying out some life threatening
dares. The plot therefore gives the
audience a rough idea of what the film
is going to be like; full of danger and
heart in mouth moments.
3. • One way in which the title sequence represents
the genre of the film is the format of the title
sequence. The title sequence uses a variety of
different software and applications from many
online technology such as iPhones and Apple
Mac's. This is very much similar to the whole
concept of the film. We see this right at the
beginning of the title sequence in which we see
the names 'Henry Joost' and 'Ariel Schulman'
spelt out using the Not Responding curser sign,
which is a spinning colourful circle.
4. • We also see some sort of Apple Mac
software when the name 'Jeanne Ryan' was
shown to the audience, as it shows the
application notes that is an application on
both Mac and iPhone. The soundtrack of the
title sequence I think is very effective as it is
the sort of music that you would probably
hear in a vintage video game. This links to
the film as the whole concept of the film is
based on an online game. It has a very
upbeat and vibrant vibe to the song and
makes the audience want to view the title
opening, I feel as though it is even more
effective as it goes with all the different
animations and colours that are shown in
the title sequence.
5. • I think that this little screenshot from the
title sequence is a very clever addition to the
sequence as it shows the colours yellow and
black. When the two colours are put
together they often suggest danger or
warning which obviously links to the film as
the rear many life threatening moments in
the scene which are associated with warning
and danger. There is a lot going on in the
opening sequence such as movements,
animations and change in colour. I feel as
though this connotes the sheer amount of
chaos and carnage that takes place
throughout the film.
