As the titles appear in a blue font the camera is seen to pan over water with light shining on it. The main actors names also start to appear one at a time all off centre.
'The Usual Suspects' title appears just as the music starts the main theme giving it an added climax and strong effect.
When the director's name 'Bryan Singer' appears the music begins to fade and so does the pan of the water. The shot then fades to black before the scene starts.
The Usual Suspects sets the mood of a thriller because it gives nothing away until the first scene and relies mainly on the atmosphere the music creates.

Overall you have included a good range of research into existing media, and use appropriate media language in your analysis. What about target audience research?
