Title Research: (Us)
We viewed the opening on Youtube. In the opening credits, the letters or words are in the color red. It was somewhat hard to read some of the words, maybe it could have been due to us watching it on Youtube or the low lighting. The scene shows a closeup shot of a white rabbit in a cage. The camera then starts to zoom out and viewers could see a large amount of white or black rabbits in cages. For the background music it sounded like a choir of women then joined by a group of men. In the music, we heard instruments such as drums and a triangle being hit. The images mainly being prioritized are the rabbits in cages. Our eyes were still focused on the rabbit in the center since the words were also in the center of the video. This opening created a creepy feeling because to us viewers we wonder why there are so many rabbits being trapped in cages. The cages are also held in a room with multiple rows of desks. The background music also added to the feeling because we could not understand what language it was in, which left us confused. The zooming out on the rabbits showed to us viewers that it was not just a rabbit but many more. As a result, it made us think what could they be useful for. The extreme closeup of the white rabbit made us think what could happen to this innocent rabbit. We felt that the words being in red relates to how the characters of the movie wore red jumpsuits. Since the movie is a horror/thriller film the red letters could symbolize or hint that there would be some blood involved. I think the opening scene appeals to its target audience because from the start you can tell that the movie is a horror film. With the camera mainly filming the rabbits it does not give off too much information about where the story is going to head. This may keep the audience watching because they may want to know what the film is about and how rabbits are related to it.
