Examples
Seven
During the opening sequence the the font of the opening sequence had a sinister look to it it wasn't a bold font and it had a scratched up effect. the writing was black and white contrasting to the opposite colour  and the size of the font was very small and it only took up a little space on the screen. the background of the opening scene was either a black scene or a video of a person cutting things from a book. during those clips the screen was tinted yellow.

Panic Room
The opening sequence of the Panic room included a larger size font which was very bold. the colour of the font was grey and it matched the building behind as if it was camouflaged. the opening sequence had a modern look to it as the background was an establishing shot of the city.

Psycho 
the opening sequence of psycho is contrasted between the colours black and white. the font of the writing is large and bold and is shown on the black background with the white font. the bold font could show the independence of the film. The titles pull in and out quickly during the whole title opening which is similar to the film as the film has a lot of action and is fast paced
