The Dark Knight Rises - Title Sequence




The opening scene is creatively presented to reveal the Batman logo, starting with logos of the production of the 'Dark Night Rises' eventually leading into flashing images, writing and lighting which effectively doesnt reveal the storyline of the film. The music in the background helps to create a tense atmosphere, leaving the audience in suspense because they won't instantly know the storyline, they will only know the actors/actresses and the genre.
