Main Task-Similar Products- Film Noir Openings

The Killers
The opening of The Killers is mainly got titles on, but before the titles, there is one element i would like to use during my production which is where they are driving in the car and the lights of the car (outside) is the only light element used, i think it creates a great effect and it sets the scene, as the light slowly goes on a sign as the car gets closer, it reads 'Brentwood' which sets the scene of where they are.

I watched the first 2 minutes.

Crime Wave
The opening of Crime Wave is very interesting as they start in the car and got to a gas station, as they are looking for something but unsure of what it is so it keeps the audience guessing. The element of this opening is that where the camera is placed in the car it makes you think that you are in the car and a part of what is going on I would to use this in my production because I would want to make the audience feel that they are a part of our film.
i watched the first 3 minuets.

Danger Signal
The opening to Danger Signal is really interesting as it grabs your attention straight away and when the clip finished i wanted to keep watching it. I like the different camera angles they used during the clip and the different place as it make you realise where this is set and the newspaper used in it also help you understand what has happened and the sort of film noir that it is.
I watched the whole clip as it is only short.
