Credit analysis- Miss Hartt

Shutter Island analysis

The credits are wrote in white for the majority of the opening as many of them are wrote on top of a black or a dark background to show good against evil. Each credit is on the screen for around 3 seconds and are all the same size font except the final credit which is the title of the movie. Some of the credits are red, which can symbolise a warning towards the protagonist or could represent violence/death.

When the credits appear they shake for a few seconds. This effect is used to make the audience focus on the credit. The last credit is wrote in large red writing on a black background. The camera then zooms in until the whole screen is black. The transition from red to black shows the warning that is given and how it eventually leads to darkness/evil.
