Analysis of two title sequences

Gone Girl


The title sequence coerces the obsessions and personality of the main character straight away. The title sequence consist of multiple close ups such as: hand writing, pains, hair colour, lips, teeth. Which builds up our relationship with the character immediately. The title sequence swiftly moves from close up to wide shot of the scenery. This adds more information to the identity of the character. The the title sequence switches back to close up of the characters lips. The credits were not integrated into the action, however it didn't disturb the short story going on - title sequence.



Girl on the Train



The start of the title sequence started with the movie production team. The title sequence (ts) starts with a head shot with the main character and the urban background music. The TS flashes through a range of close ups and wide shots to establish the story line. The rapidness through the different shots  represent the characters life and imitates what it is like to be in the characters head. Z form is used to integrate the credits into the TS.
