My opening sequence comparison to Se7en opening sequence

During last weeks media lesson Mr Barton made us work on Final Cut Pro to create and opening sequence based on the thriller movie Se7en. Using all the knowledge i have gained from using Final Cut Pro i have put together a short opening sequence for a film named 'surveillance' this video can be sen below.

Comparing my opening to the opening of se7en (see the top video for my opening sequence and the bottom one for Se7en) i can see several differences and consistencies these can be seen below.

Consistencies

- The fact that both mine and se7en's openings are both dark, eerie, gritty and mysterious settings (mine showing various photo's and videos of mysterious people committing acts against the law and posing for police photo's while se7en's shows a person looking through medical books and medical documentation in a mysterious room)

- the fact that both mine and se7en's use similar effects causing overshadowing (effects that cause the viewer to see a distorted, eerie and mysterious picture.

- The fact that both use titles that don't tell an audience much about the story (Surveillance and Se7en leave the audience with many questions like what is under surveillance?, what does se7en represent? etc.)

Differences

- The fact that Se7ens opening has a lot more of a 'flow' to it as all the clips and photo's seem to fit together where at some points mine looks out of place and shoddy.

- The fact that Se7ens has had a more proffesional approach (you can see that more camera angles, money, props and coordination has gone into the making of the Se7en opening.)

- The fact that Se7ens opening uses a wider array of effects that are of more standard then the ones i used that where probably standards effects.)
