The Village – Film Opening Analysis
During the opening credits we see the names of
all the people involved in the making of the film.
They are in a white font on a dark background.
Some of the writing is faded out by trees which
can add to the feeling of fear.
As this shot appears the music from the opening
credits dies off slowly and as this shot appears a
slow and sympathetic tone of music appears. The
shot itself is an over the shoulder shot of the
crowd where in the distance the man is leaning
over the coffin on his own, this shows that he
could be the protagonist of the film.
This shot shows the man over the coffin slightly
closer, however it is still an over-the-shoulder
shot of the people stood watching him.
