Title Sequence Research: The Shining.

The opening setting may seem like a holiday, but The Shining's destination is no vacation. The omniscient overhead camerawork and ominous soundtrack soon tell the audience that the people in the car we are following are in big trouble.The long shots show that there is no civilization for miles which puts the main characters at risk when seeking help as it will be impossible to find it, Even the ice blue credits scrolling across the screen can seem haunting as it can symbolize cold heartedness and evil. The destination is then revealed and seems to be a mansion sized house which can be big enough to get lost in. From this the audience can tell that a lot of stuff will go on in that house.
