Theses are the opening titles to The Purge. From what we can see is that there is a grainy video film, from what seems to be a CCTV camera outside a shop. From the typeface used, we can see how the producers have tried to match the type of font you would see on normal CCTV camera footage. This helps the audience believe the film being played is realistic. This helps with the film, since it's about an yearly Purge whereby for eight hours everything is legal, and no media services are in use. This footage makes the audience believe that the footage being shown on the CCTV camera is what's happening during the Purge. This can also be supported by the fact the worlds " SYRACUSE, NY PURGE FEED " is at the top of the screen. We can also see one of the main actors names to the side which is Ethan Hawke,
In this screen capture of the film, if we look at the Mise-en-Scène the colour palate is strickly on the grey scale, this adds to the darkness feeling which is presented in the rest of the film.
In this scene we can see the continuation in the typeface and the colour palate. Although this colour palate contains grey scale it also contains a little more colour, which is red. This can give the audience the idea that the film will also be dark and contain red, which would be the blood. This helps a lot since the film is not only a thriller but also a horror, which instantly means there will be some type of gore and death.
This film is perfect to display this, since we can see a number of dead people laying face down on the street. The lighting in almost non-existent as it's so dark.

In this scene we can see more titles and more actors names. Just like the first scene we can see that the same typeface has been used and that they producers are keeping that consistent. From this we can also show that it's trying to reproduce the font used on a real CCTV camera. Although within this scene we can't see an visual hierarchy, the way people are running around gives the audience a sense of panic, and of being scared. This also helps link to the rest of the film, since it contains panic and pain. From scene to scene of the CCTV camera's the producers have purposely used jump shots to show how the movie will be fast paced and jumpy.
