- First shot is an extreme close up shot of the back of a females head.
- Second shot is an extreme wide shot of a pear with the title of the movie being displayed in the center.
- The next series of shots are collectively all wide shots taken from the front of the buildings within a town. The angles from which they are taken vary from 'eye-level' to slightly 'canted' angles.
- The next three shots are of a medium long shot of the protagonist standing in front of his house which then switches to a long shot of him being taken from his left hand side to another medium long shot of the protagonist walking back to his house while the camera pans and follows him.
Editing
- The speed of the shots develop as the title sequence progresses from the first shot of the women's head lasting for about up to 5 seconds which then cuts to the buildings which all on average last for about up to 1 and a half seconds. The transition between shots is faded which can be seen between the first and second shot as the title of the movie slowly appears and fades away into the distance to maybe signifying a relation between the word 'gone'.
Sound
- As soon as the title sequence begins a wild track is played to synchronize with the opening credits. Then at 23 seconds a voice over of Ben Affleck is played as soon as the next shot switches to a women to suggest to the audience he is talking about his wife. Ambient sound can also be heard 27 seconds into the title sequence of birds chirping, wildlife and the clanging of metal signs to create a real atmosphere across to the audience.
Mise-en-scene
- The location of the title sequence takes place within a town, suggested by the pear, dinners, shops and houses seen in the intro. Ben Affleck is seen wearing casual clothes such as joggers and a t-shirt. The whole lighting of the title sequence is fairly stale to maybe create a tone and feeling across to the audience.
