The Opening Credits
• Opening Scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JV1436VsnZY

What we see:
• The film has been done in the noir style, but with a modern twist as the pictures are done to reflect the graphic novel of the same name. in this case, chroma-key techniques are used to colour in certain aspects of the scene such as a woman’s dress.
What we see:
• There is also a fully black and white-silhouette effect used that reflects the graphic novel almost completely. This effect is mostly used in death/romantic scenes and almost emphasises the feelings expressed in the scenes.
The same effect is used at the end of the movie
What we see
• In the opening credits, we see pictures that appear to be taken from the graphic novel accompanied by the corresponding actor/actress’ name. the typeface used also reflects the style of the graphic novel.
What we hear• Firstly we hear the sounds of police sirens (digetic sound) and a
smooth, jazzy, 1920’s style soundtrack (non-digetic sound) as the woman is looking over the city
• The man’s inner monologue is narrating, we hear his thoughts but no one else does
• In the credits, we hear the track titled ‘Sin City’, which has the tone of a 20’s gangster film with the use of the saxophone, bass and drum kit.
