From a young age David Fincher already knew what he was going to do when he was younger. When he was 18 he had an internship at Korty Films ; he was then able to gain knowledge and experience about directing. He later left that company to help direct films for big companies, form the likes of Coco Cola and pop stars like Madonna. In this case study I will be looking at 4 films they are : Seven, The Game and Fight Club . Once I have viewed the opening title sequences , I will comment on the conventions and the impact it has upon the audience .
Seven
Seven is a Thriller that stares Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt. In the beginning of the trailer there is use of red text this is eye catching to the audience , as you eye is focuses on what happening on the screen. There is use of long shots this allows the audience to see what is happening within the screen clearly. Seven has use of non-diegetic sound, this is effective as this helps to create suspense . There is also non-degetic sound the narrator; this is useful as it tells the audience who stares within the film. The trailer of Seven is very short and it doesn't give anything away to the audience , which is useful .
The Game
The Game is a Thriller that came on to the screens in 1997and the main cast of the film is Michael Douglas and Sean Penn. There is used of close-ups at the start of the opening sequence of The Game ; this is used so the audience is able to understand the emotions of the characters . There is use of jump cuts within the scenes , this allows the audience to see a variety of shots . There is use of texts this helps to break the scenes ; the text is effective as the audience is able ,to achieve a better understanding about what could potentially happen.

Fright Club was an successful film for David Fincher as it won for Oscars and was nominated for 13. He received some recognition for his work within the thriller film industry ; Fight Club came on to the screens in 1999 and the film stares Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. The use of sound is effective as it engages the audience to see what is on the mise en scene. The characters are introduced , this is useful as the audience is able to understand what the characters personalities are like. There are a variety of thriller conventions that are apparent within the trailer , is the absence of natural light , this is present on the screen because it appears to be dark . There is use of fighting this may suggest that the film my be violent . There is use of digetic sound, this helps to understand what my potentially happen .
