Panic Room



The diegetic sound in this title sequence fits that of a busy city, matching what the cinematography shows us of wide shots of buildings. The soundtrack fastens and starts the build tension, the camera movements become faster at this point, showing more busy traffic and from high angles suggesting power, towards the end of the clip there is a low angle shot perhaps suggesting the characters lack of power within the diegesis. I like the way the font fits with the buildings, almost as if they are the buildings or are like billboards. The pace of the editing begins slow, and then fastens with the soundtrack. I don't think there are any signifiers to suggest what happens in the film, I think this title sequence is used to set the scene within the film.
