The music for this is slow and is a dramatic and powerful balled and it matches the slow motion of James Bond falling deeper into the water as it has the same tempo. The song feels quite sad so the audience expects the dark and gloomy underwater setting and relates to the James Bond character as he is very calm and cool but can explode into action and be deadly. The title is white which resembles being clean and pure but starts to decay as he falls through the sand and disappears relating to the 'fall' part of the title which gives the impression bad things will happen as the title isnt very positive. This may suggest that bad things will happen in the film and prepares the audience that bad things will happen and it wont all be happy for 007. The opening credits are white in capitals so they clearly stand out against the dark colours and are easily visible so the audience can cleary see whose been involved and it dosent clash with the colour of the water. The colours are dark blue and black and white creating a dark feel to the start of the film, and it goes through cut outs of james bond with blood coming out of them and then big daggers going into the ground whilst the camera goes through a graveyard which helps create the dark atmosphere, to then blood and flames filling the bottom of the ocean. As it progresses the music gets louder and creates more suspense as the audience is waiting for the film to begin.
Iron Man 3:
The music is very fast paced and heroic as it has alot of brass and drums going at a quick tempo, making it very powerful and suiting the superhero theme of saving the day. It suits the fact he is a superhero and assures the audience he is very good at it as he's made to look extremely heroic and cool. When a credit is shown it freezes for a second and has a red background with yellow writing which matches the traditional iron mans colours and when iron mans froze it looks more like the old cartoon comic version then goes back to the modern advanced version. It clearly shows that Downey Junior is the Iron Man as it shows clips of both of them and also how he gets into the suit. The screen grabs from the film show all the sci-fi and superhero elements as well as the life of Tony Stark himself and the long intro shows the audience how much time went into developing the film and all it differrent aspects. It also shows the complete non superhero aspect of the film with scenes in casions and clus with dancing girls which is nothing like the comic books making it more modern and entertainment based. The font of the title and credits looks like its out of a comic book too showing thats what it originated from and its a marvel film. It looks very heroic as theres clips of big action scenes showing the audience that there is going to be alot of action in the film, preparing the audience for big action scenes with alot of special effects. The fast paced introduction prepares the audience for the high intensity of action during the film and excites them.
Sherlock Holmes:
The style of the title sequence is very old and traditional as it uses calligraphy handwriting on parchment which is often associated with the victorian age, the time in which sherlock is set. They use this to show the opening credits so it relates to the film and the audience gets the feeling its set in old times, which settles them in to the setting of the film. Its barely shown in any colour as well as most of its in black and white or sepia, which also creates a very victorian feel and dosent make it modern. The clips are made into an effect so they look as if they've been filmed by a old victorian camera instead of the high tech cameras that would have been used in the making of this film. All these types of effects contribute into making the opening title sequence appeer to be very old and traditional. The music is very string based as theres alot of guitars and violins playing with the accompaniment of drums in the background to make the protagonist Sherlock seem very heroic and builds up the excitement of the film for the audience. More evidence of it being victorian is the costumes that the characters wear, such as Dr. Watson (Jude Law) dressed in a long wool coat, a top hat and a fat mustache which is the stereotypical look of a upper class man in the victorian era.
