1. How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which ones?
1 title is displayed during the opening scene. It is the title of the movie “She Dies Tomorrow” on a black screen. The letters are an abstract pattern, mostly including red.
2. What connotations do the images carry?
The image carries a mysterious connotation due to not really being able to figure out what is behind the letters.
3. How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset?
The genre is reinforced by adding very ominous music along with what sounds like a woman humming very eerily. The slow fade of the title along with this music creates a long, stretched-out feeling of nervousness because you don’t know what is going to happen next.
4. What conventions are used to ensure the film appeals to its target audience?
Multiple conventions are used. Music and editing are the main ones. The music definitely targets an audience of people who like thriller movies, and the editing goes hand in hand with the music.
