Se7en





The opening to se7en uses ghosting, which is an effect which makes us feel uneasy. This effect is commonly found in this genre. The constant turning of the pages makes us want to know what is the book, and why is this person reading it. Thrillers often leave riddles for the audience to solve, so solving a riddle which may come up in this film is an audience pleasure. The font on the book and writing is untied and messy, which makes us feel uncomfortable, all the flickering and random white pulses lets us know this film will be scary, which hints it may be a horror aswell as a thriller.

The colour red bursting out the screen makes us feel uneasy. The colour red also signifies horror and blood, this would match with the genre that this film fits in. The whole scene makes us feel uncomfortable, and this was the aim of the director.
