Title Research: Prisoners

I got this movie from Art of the Title.

What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?

The titles that are displayed in the opening sequence are the actor and the movie's name.

What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?

The image shows a guy in his car driving. It shows the setting giving many types of shots. It shows the man walking somewhere to an office putting something on the table and getting mad. Someone getting killed by poisonous gas but not showing who it is.

How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the opening sequence?

It gives a feeling of mystery because it shows the beginning of how a mystery is going to occur. It shows the investigator meeting someone, however, after the man he saw got poisoned by gas. This makes it a mystery because it doesn't show who got poisoned. Another thing was the music the music is usually what is used in mysteries.

Another song that I used that was able to be free was "Mystery 7 Suspense Background Music for Films & Documentaries" by the YouTube channel "LVKEHOUSE" which allows anyone to use these sounds without any copyright claims. To find the mysterious sound effects I w...

Doing a film review + adding changes to it

On March 11 I had my sister do a film review of my opening sequence. My sister reviewed it and said that she liked the beginning shot and the music chosen for the beginning of the opening sequence. However, she did make a few suggestions to change the lightning to make it have a more mysterious vibe. So, one of the first changes I made was to adjust the lighting to darker. To do this I clicked on my opening sequence went to the bottom of the options and chose "adjust". With these options, I was able to adjust my lighting to make it have a more mysterious vibe. She also suggested to increase the volume of the main character talking because she couldn't understand what she said in the opening sequence. I went into CapCut to fix these by increasing the volume on the parts where the main character is speaking. To do this I clicked on the audio of the scene where she was talking and there was an option to increase the volume so, I just adjusted the volume to higher to make su...
