Individual analysis of title sequence seven

Individual analysis of title sequence Seven:

The opening title sequence of Seven, is like something I have never seen before, it is one of the best edited and put together sequences I have ever seen. The sequence compares various sighs, signifier and signification which adds to its effectiveness and how we the viewers are enticed into watching the whole film just by the opening title sequence.

The signs that are shown in the opening are a lot of obvious things, like the colour red, graphic pictures of dead people, scissors, needles, ink, blades, hands and fingers.
 The signifier of these sighs suggest various things, red could be portrayed as blood or mystery, the pictures represent murder and death  and the signification behind all of this is that red is used for danger, the writing is used to leave you hanging and wanting to see more and find out what has been written. These signs all suggest a physiological thriller, someone messing with us and showing us images which we take upon ourselves to piece together and then we think we have an idea of the film.
 We see blades, and we see the colour red and we put two and two together, even though they maybe completely unrelated. The makers of the sequence have made it so that we are given various images and colours and we piece it together ourselves and make up our own minds about what is happening.

 This is very clever and links in well with the physiological thriller, there are so many images and clues which we miss and everyone will notice and pick up different bits, therefore it is for your own mind to work out what is going on with the music and images and lettering used, we all will interoperate it differently, but the genre is quite clear, this in itself is a incredibly clever thing to do.
The editing is so fast that we miss so many images and clues and we individually notice different images. Some may see and pick up things that others haven't noticed, and it is verually impossible to see all of the images and clues due to the pacey editing, which again is very thrilling and physiological and even quite exciting.
