4. SWEENY TODD
Richard Morrison, shows the names of the companies first, he uses dark
backgrounds so the titles stand out more it also represents the theme of the
film and how it will be showed. He focuses on blood passing through the
process of making a pie. The pie grinding gives us a sense of the murderers
preferred method of killer. The dark lighting helps add to the eeriness and
suspense of the film. Once inside the house the camera continuously follows a
drip which falls from a chair then goes throughout the house, this could
connote that the killer murders people in his own home and the way the chair
is the center of attention could suggest that it’s important to the story. The
music is fast paced and eerie and mainly focused on violins which builds up
tension.

5. CIRCUS
The title sequence for this film is very different form the rest he has done, the
music in the background is very up-beat and cheerful. The music fits well with
what is being seen in the title sequence. He blurs out all the lighting in the
background making the image look distorted, carnival rides appear to be in the
background which links with the title of the film. The titles that appear look
like they are always moving which gives the effect of fast paced action, he also
uses a dark colour for the name of the film, which is surrounded by bright
distorted colours.
