The opening to Se7en uses as mixture of both black frame and superimposed titles. However, the Editors and Titlists have added after-effects of glitching and celluloid crackling to the shots, this not only makes them more interesting to watch but introduces a chaotic and in some ways sinister mood, this is also achieved through the suspenseful music used at this point. This sets and fits the sinister mood for the rest of the film.
With a white font the positioning of the title texts when superimposed is usually in the darkest part of the frame, this highlights the text and makes sure that it isn't lost in the speed of editing and suggested madness that is happening at this point in frames.
