My Bloody Valentine Opening

The opening to My Bloody Valentine contains newspaper articles which reminds me of my groups film opening as we also used newspaper articles relating to the murder and Jack the Ripper. However, in My Bloody Valentine opening the newspaper articles are shown differently as the newspaper articles use editing element such as superimpose.
This is the opening to My Bloody Valentine 3D:


From 0.19 seconds to 0.37 seconds there is a range of different editing and camera skills used which I find very interesting. In 0.19 seconds the headlines pan to different headlines, news articles or photographs relating to the story and relating to the victims which is superimpose over a shot. The shot will stay for an average of six seconds before panning to a different shot, the shot will then change as it zooms out to reveal another headline and then the camera zooms on to a picture of a man which could show that he is a main character the shoot has a picture of the man with writing which seems like it may be a story. The camera then passes a headline, a lamp and another headline but slower which shows ther audience that it says 'Forgot to Bleed Lines' which seems like it is a line taken from a story or article. The camera then zooms in to a picture of men walking in a mine which shows that they are miners but the shot makes the audience feel like they took the photograph of the miners. In the clip 0.54 the headlines get bigger so the audience can see the word 'Murder?' and then the headline is sliced which shows the murder weapon. The editing is usually zoomed in or out as the film is in 3D so the headlines will pop out. The opening also has a voice-over which is a man sounding like he is stressed and worried and he is talking to an audience 'Calm down folks' and then there are crowd noices.
