During one of our recent media lessons we watched the opening sequences of two Saul Bass title sequences and analysed them, these films were Vertigo and Psycho. The things we were asked to comment on were Image, use of camera, colour, graphics and music.In the opening sequence for Psycho the music is very dramatic and discordent. The type of instruments used are the strings and orchestrals. This fits is very well with the graphics which are quite plain but fast. The font is also quite plain but stands out very well against the backround.
In the opening sequence for vertigo the music is very slow and mysterious but it is also very dramatic. The graphics used are graphics that resemble an eye. The camera does a close up of the womans face and then goes into a big close up of her eyes. This image fits in very well with the mysterious atmosphere given off from the music.
