ZOMBIE LAND TITLE SEQUENCE.

At the start of the zombie land title sequence, a bell rings. This gives me the impression that wherever the film is set, every hour the bell goes off, but in this case it could mean for every kill the zombie does the bell rings. It also could represents a church, as every life that has been taken away by the zombies all the humans know about it. As you can see a zombie is chucking a worker off the stairs after the noise of the bell.( The bell represents Time to die)

Throughout each shot of this short title sequence, you see the cast and crews names who took part in the film in red. I think its in red to show that the film is going to be a horror, and that there will be some sort of killing in the film, as red is referred to death and danger.
During the titles of the cast and crews it shows zombies attacking pedestrians, with blood stains on there top and blood splurging out of there mouths. This tells us that the film will be about zombies trying to take over the city in any shape or form. It also brings out the comedy side to the film as in one clip there is a stripper zombie chasing a human, so I think even though its gory and dark there elements in film that's funny.




I think that the music is main part of mise-en-scene in this piece, as the music is very dark and aggressive. This gives me the impression that the film will be very loud and will be very hectic as the music is as well. Also the music is all on top of each other, which is creating that tension for the film to start its opening scene.
The soundtrack which is playing through the title sequence has a lyric saying, "Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey..." These lyrics also gives the impression that its about death and killing as its talking about guns. Also when it says, "on they run through the endless grey". It could lead to mean that the zombies who are trying to take over the city are running out there enemies into a tunnel of death.
