Opening Title Sequence Of Casino Royale By Daniel Kleinman

Daniel Kleinman is a British Television Commercial and Music video director, but also designed the opening title sequence to the James Bond films. I used Art Of The Title to show the creativity of the opening title sequence.

The opening image is James Bond shooting the audience and the blood running down the screen. This shows the traditional image and the start of the film but also introduces the new James Bond - Daniel Craig. The credits are shown in white to stand out. The music that is being played is loud and energetic which also creates effect but also prepares the audience for an active, energetic film. During the opening title sequence we see images of card suits and guns which relates back to the title 'Casino Royale' as the film is based in a casino. The card suits and guns turn into a casino wheel, which highlights the mix between murder and gambling, both shown a lot in this film. The queen of spades' face changes through the clip to become the girl seen in the film suggesting she is dark and cunning. Craig walks up to the camera to an extreme close up shot so the audience can see his facial expressions.
