This title sequence finishes at 2:50.
The music starts at 0:24 and is non-diegetic the same music is used throughout the opening sequence although different instruments are brought in and combined together. These sounds give the opening scene a creepy atmosphere and a thrilling edge.
The sound used in this scene is also contrapuntal sound as you wouldn't expect a calm river to have chilling music in the background.
This opening title is set in a river or some sort, without the music used in the background this setting would appear to be quite calm but with it creates a tension of anxiety.
In certain clips the audience will see that on the river there are images of some sort eagle, at 0:38 also you can clearly see the eye that forms across the setting at 1:00. Also a bit later in this sequence viewers will also be able to notice the face at 1:34, all these images are close ups and they all blur into one and anther. The editing helps with this as it has a dissolve effect which helps ensure the clips don't jump.
Towards the end of this sequence the colour and lighting turns to a blue which then morphs into a blood red.
Right at the end of this sequence the narrator speaks to the camera face on, she holds a calm expression but it gives a slightly unnerving atmosphere as it doesn't seem quite natural.
