The film begins with titles appearing on a black background to introduce the production team. The last title, "flight 93", indicates the film will focus on this event and provides context without distracting visuals. Establishing shots of an airport and plane introduce the setting as Newark Airport on September 11th, signaling the film will depict that day's airplane crashes. Subsequent titles reveal characters' names in shots of the actors, identifying main characters like Jeffrey Nordling who plays Tom. Credits for lesser roles fade over unimportant scenery.

1. The film starts of with a black background, then titles start to appear. The first three titles are telling the
audience who presents the films and who is involved in the production process. The last title that
appears on the black screen is the title ‘flight 93’, this signifies to the audience that the film is about to
begin and gives them a little insight on what the film may be about. Because all the titles are placed on a
black background this gives the audience no clues or information about the actual film yet. Also this
could connote that the titles are important and the producer doesn’t want to distract you with mise en
scene and just wants you to focus on the titles.

2. These two titles have been placed in an establishing shot, this allows the audience to notify
where the setting which the audience can tell by these two shots that it is an airport and also
one of the titles that appear also notifies them as it says ‘Newark Airport’. These establishing
shots also link in with the title ‘flight 93’ as they have just shown the audience an airport and an
aeroplane, this shows the audience that the film is going to be about an aeroplane because of
the first couple of titles and shots given. The titles give the audience information on what day
and time it is. From this the audience is given more information as the date that has been stated
everyone is aware that, that date is the date the 9/11 plane crashes happen, so now the audience
has a slight idea of the upcoming events. This will make the audience want to see more of the
film and how this film is portraying that terrible event and how it might of followed through as
no one knows.

3. The next titles appear in shots that people are in, who seem to be some of the main characters of
the film. These titles are just the names of people and not what they have done in the process of
making the film suggesting to the audience that these are the real names of the characters that
are going to be starring in the film. The titles have appeared in shots that now show potential
characters faces showing the audience who will be in the film. Also the titles have come up
according to importance in the film, for example the main character ‘JEFFREY NORDLING’ who
plays the role of tom in the film has appeared first as he is the main character.

4. In these next shots the names of people have been put together showing that their
importance is lower than the other ones. Also they haven’t been placed when you can
see any of the characters faces suggesting these names are not any of the characters.

5. All these shots involve the names of people who was involved in the filming process and put it all
together. All the titles in the opening fade in and out. This titles appear in not so
important scenery suggesting they are not important either, these titles are just something that
is added if anyone wants information on the people behind the film.
