1. The first shot of this title sequence shows the ‘Columbia Pictures’ ident. This is used because idents are commonly the first thing shown in films. The audience identifies with the ident as most of the audience will recognise it. This ident has bright colours which is an anti-stereotype to the thriller genre, confusing the audience.

2. This shot again shows the name of the ident previously shown, but this time has the background of a city skyline and the text is in a bold, clear text with bright colour. This is most likely used to introduce the scene with an establishing shot while integrating the titles with the opening of the film, keeping the audience watching while the titles are shown.

3. This shot continues the theme of showing buildings from the city in the background while opening credits are being shown. This time, another production company is shown while the camera pans around a tall building. The audience would carry on watching as the location keeps changing around the city so the audience wants to see where it goes next.

4. This frame shows buildings in the background with bright skies behind, along with clear bright text at the front. The text is big in comparison to the building behind it, making it look important and stand out to the audience. The audience would focus on this text as it is the main focus of the shot and they will recognise it.

5. In this shot, an actor’s name appears in front of another part of the city being shown in this opening sequence, some of the text is covered by a shadow created by the building behind. This shows the scale and size of the building, suggesting that the city is massive. This creates a sense of mystery for the audience.

6. This frame also continues the theme of a city skyline as the background as another actor’s name appears in front. This makes the text the focus of the shot and the audience then focuses on it. This text is different from previous, as it is wider and stretching across the whole shot. This shows the text as wide as the building, showing it is important.

7. In this shot, a busy street is shown next to a few big buildings, further showing off the location of the film. The colours of this shot are bright and colours that connote things such as power (blue) and growth (green). These colours are used to create themes of the location shown in the opening sequence.

8. This shot is closer up than earlier shots of the with the text along the side of another building. The shot pans around the building to show an actor’s name that is across the building. The pan draws in the attention of the audience so they are more enticed when the actor’s name is revealed.

9. This last shot of the title sequence shows the title of the film, in the centre of the frame, once again with the city skyline and clear blue skies in the background. The text is big and in the middle so the audience focuses on it. It is the last thing shown in the title sequence so it stays in the audiences’ mind.
