**Corections as Blogger messed up when importing: T5 should be T1 and T4 should be T31 but they will be described using the numbers under each screen shot.**

Throughout the title sequence the same clean crisp typography is used even for the main title of the film. this is layered over the top of some casino themed animations, some good example of this is in T19 and T20 where there are shaped reminiscent of veins which have broken open and red hearts are flowing out of them representing blood. the theme of gambling is seen in ever shot from T6 to T26 using the correlating background patterns representing casino tables. Towards the end of the opening (T27 onwards) the background rapidly changes into these swirling patterns which is similar to the kind of pattern you might find on a bank note which again reenforces the casino themes.

This opening sequence uses a rather standard but slightly futuristic and industrail typography layed over the top of some very good animation sequences for example in T18 where the pieces of the clock are coming together on fire and when they all meet the fire is extinguished and smoke wafts up from the clock face. The opening as well is very effective at creating a dark and mysterious mood very reminiscent of the first hunger games movie where the forest is on fire, this is also used in T16 with the beasts skull / teeth which is again reminiscent of the first movie.

the opening titles fit well to the Genre of Horror but also holds some elements of comedy, for example the naked stripper in T9, 10 and 11 chasing a portly gentleman holding a fist full of cash. the use of comedic elements are also shown in T16 and T17 where the man is shooting towards the 'camera' but a zombie is running up to him beheind him. All of the opening sequence is in slowmotion, i feel personally that they decided to do this to show of the mis en scene espically the costume and make up as quite a lot of fake blood is often shown to be slurging out of several zombies mouths or vitcims.

Through out the opening the same typography is used in a similar style. In each example  the typography starts static before becoming envolved in the action, this is particularly in T8 when the axe shatters the glass thus breaking the typography in the process, a similar action is used T18 when the glass in the windscreen. Another good example of the typography becoming involved in the action is in T1 where the man is thrown off the stair way, shortly afterwards the typography falls as well. The exit for every piece of typography is the same kind of tumbling / falling affect, this could be a reflection upon the falling of society in the film or the fall of each human in each shot.
