Institutional Info of an Opening Sequence

Institutional Info of an Opening Sequence


This part of the opening credits give the audience an establishment of comedy within the scene whilst also showing the audience how real situations included in an everyday normal life, such as a parent-son sport activity, it gives the audience a sense of reality within the text so that they are more drawn into it and therefore enjoy the text better.
This scene establishes that its a gory horror film, so the audiences aren't too shocked when it starts developing later on in the text. The red colour of the writing connotes to the anarchy, destruction and death, making it clear that the audience is watching a horror movie as well as an comedy.



The text again adds a comedic affect by attributing a famous scene from Scarface with a mash up of zombies, any members of the audience who have watched Scarface before will be able to understand the joke  and therefore enjoy the movie better, whilst feeling some connection with the text as it reaches out to them.


The use of unsuspecting civilians adds to the effect of mystery as it says that there could be a zombie apocalypse right outside the door and the audience haven't noticed it themselves, slightly advancing through the third wall actually coming out to the viewer. Again using normal everyday experiences for people and attacking it with zombies very strong as the audience begins to feel how real it is for the characters and enjoy the store more.
This scene shows how outnumbered the humans are to zombies adding fear and worry to the audience's emotions as they see how vulnerable the characters really are as they see how effective the zombies are at actually killing humans, adding a real fear factor lets the audience develop feelings for the characters becoming more absorbed into the text and therefore becoming more immersed into the text.
This first scene of the credits again adds the fear of the apocalypse happening all around the world, again showing how vulnerable everyone is making the audience more attached to the characters, developing feelings for them and wanting to keep them safe from the perils that they face.



The main title of the text here is when the movie begins, the audience can see the smashing of a window, connoting to total loss of control and total destruction of society as windows are usually broken during riots and rebellions which makes them significant in this post-apocalypse movie
