Sin City




Another film I am using for an example is Sin City(Frank Miller 2005)
The film's artwork is the whole movie is only black, white and red, occasionally other colours too.
The whole film is based on a graphic novel created by Frank Miller- which also sticks to those rules.
The opening titles are introducing the character's in cartoon form and how they look in the comic.

The plot summary from IMDB;
"Sin City" is four stories inter-weaved telling tales of corruption in Basin City. The first story (The Customer is always right) is short, and is based on the depression of women that they need to pay a man to feel loved when they commit suicide. The next story is Part 1 of "That Yellow Bastard" about a cop who needs to save a young girl from being raped. The third story (The Hard Goodbye) features a man taking revenge on a heartless killer who murdered his one-night stand. The fourth story (The Big, Fat Kill) stars a man who must dispatch a cop's body, but it will be a tough ride to do it. Following that are two conclusions to Sin City, the ending of "That Yellow Bastard" which is set 8 years later, and a short story that ends Sin City.

For both Sin City and Repo! The Genetic Opera, I created the nine frames myself, since Artofthetitles does not feature these two film openings- and it makes my blog look a lot more neater than having big pictures everywhere.
