Shaun of the Dead, Opening Titles
Shaun of the Dead
The opening titles of Shaun of the Dead use repetitive rightward tracking shots as well as flat angle medium- long shots in order to present a almost 'storybook' style opening, as if the viewer is turning pages in a book. This is further unforced by the use of left wipe transitions.
The misc-en-scene used is also highly suggestive of the 'undead forces' as the characters body language is 'zombie-like' in nature, foreshadowing the events later in the film. For example the mindless mirroring of the cashiers.
The overall graphic style of the opening titles are also suggestive of a 'zombie film', the font used seems to be battered, with various holes in letters, implying something is not right
