Dead man on campus

Cinema’s most celebrated title sequence, SEVEN storyboarded by Wayne Coe. I visualized this shot list, the first to dramatize the film and look. 


Expiation of God from state (“god” cut from a dollar); temptation’s of Eve (paid sex) & mortification of the flesh (self-mutilation). 


I see the director’s religious fundamentalist anxiety in his jumpy cutting, etched typography and great subtext of religious anxiety.
