analysis of credits

In the opening of the film seven the credits show that it is going to be a horror film, this is because there is white spindly on a black background which is popular in the horror genre at the moment. also the font is on a moving image which makes it dynamic and adds affect, but also the moving image relates to the font as it  shows a hand writing in a book. The credits change from one to another in a flicker y motion, which shows it is creepy. Therefore we may have white font on a black background in our opening as it looks successful.
