Analysis of The Infernal Affair 2 and The Departed Title Sequences...





The infernal affair and the departed are the chosen films that we will study in aid to help us with our title sequence. Both films are within the crime genre.

Infernal affairs- This film's title sequence has helped us a lot as it has shown us how to present our triad. It has also taught us a lot about mise-en-scene and cinematography. As we know think we can play a lot of tricks within lighting for example we can use a lot of dull and depressing lighting. This film has shown us that within our title sequence we should not focus too much on our suspect and our investigator instead we should only shoot them from side angles and long shots and extreme long shots.

The Departed - This film's title sequence has also helped us a lot, as we would love to incorporate what they have done with their lead role to our investigator. As they have also used dark and dull lighting like we would like to. They have concealed who their lead character is by never showing his face. We thought that we could now do this by getting our investigator to never look at the camera and only get the back and side of his head.
