The Walking Dead is an American TV Series presumably set in present day. The title sequence enforces the plot by including an eerie and haunting atmosphere, involving some disturbing clips of a graveyard and an environmentally degraded locations for example.
The title sequence creates a gripping and mysterious aura by completely draining the pictures of any distinctive colour and making them look terrifyingly dead and greyscale.
Nevertheless, the music used is somewhat intriguing and lures you in closer so you feel more involved, it almost brings a manipulative effect to the sequence. I also noticed one of the scenes consists of a centipede slipping into and out of a dark area without being easily seen; stereotypically the sight of a centipede means you could potentially be about to get involved with something shady and dubious. All these features correspond to make a more developed and hysterical experience for the audience when watching this title sequence.
You convey the effects on the viewer created by the choice of colour, mise-en-scene and editing. Please add the screenshot.
