Product Research: Suits Opening Sequence/Title

Lately I have been exploring an amount of opening titles to get an understanding for my product research. Today, I bought my first US Weekly magazine and on the back of the magazine was the promotion for US TV series Suits which caught my attention because the poster was black and white, and the title of the show in red, which was very contrasting and challenging the modern theme of colour, and also going back to originality of black and white.

The current running special effects is the tiles blacking out and introducing a new scene that is in the series. I think this could be taken for the opening credits of Uncut Production's final thriller project. This informs the viewers about continuity and also an order not necessarily from: beginning, middle and end. The sense of realism is also created because from scene to scene there is some relevance to the topic of the show, whereas it would be absurd to go from the man going to work then being introduced to pirates on a ship.

Red, blue. The colours of the police car lights, and also danger and safety. Filling the screen with one colour for each character is symbolism of their identity, the red representing: danger, passion and death. Whereas, the colour blue is a representation of: safety, freedom and power.
The two colours coming together is a sign of power and coming to victory but, the colours against each other shows competition.
