The title
sequence is at the end of the trailer and the sequence starts off as the letter
of the names come together and join together in a mechanical but yet old fashioned
way.
Then the letters
come together to make the words Sherlock Holmes then ‘a Game of Shadows’ drops
down from the bottom of the other words. I think that this title sequence is
really good because it gives you the sense that is a period crime thriller. It does
this by using the mechanical sequence and also the colours that are used in the
sequence are a dark blue/green which gives the trailer a sense of mystery.
The product
company sequence starts off with the Warner Bros. logo but this logo has also
got a feeling that is a period crime thriller. It also uses the same colour scheme
throughout the trailer.
Then there is
a very slick animation of the cross hears folder and then the Village Roadshow
logo came up.
This
animation happens again and the Silver Pictures logo comes up.
Se7en
The first
thing you see in the trailer is the product company sequence which is just the
New Line Cinema logo fading in and then fading out. the New Line Cinema logo is
a very simple but iconic, it is just a blue background with a black square and
the two film reals on the square.
The title
sequence off the se7en trailer is also quite simple it is just the number 7 in
roman numerals in a font that looks like blood. Then the work seven fades into
the image underneath the roman numerals.
