Exploring the theme of my film title sequence

I wanted this sequence be linked to the overwhelming emotion that I had wanted to convey, with the stress of the music. I tried to alter the music through the different shots used to highlight the time passing, to create some sort of chronological narrative. I have used a variety of shots, including a range of close-ups, as well as wide shots, to try to attach the theme to the character. The music doesn't change really through the different locations used, to stress out the character's long mourning time, before she visits the funeral shop, but I have used different volume and tone of the sound, to reflect the roller coaster of a journey that she is having. A lot of my shots are hand held, which I sort of wish I had steadicam, to make more of a linear shot, and so it feels more controlled. I also added some video transitions such as dissolve to show time passing, as well as the music, it helps to show the different places my character went to, and stresses out the long length p the time. I also used fade in and fade out to try and make the audience connect to the piece, I also felt that the editing between the titles was too fast, and I wanted to slow it down, to also to read the titles.
