Kyle Cooper

As my group did a group analysis of the title sequence SE7EN, I decided to look at the creator of the sequence, Kyle Cooper.

Kyle Cooper was born in 1962 and went to Yale University to gain a degree in Graphics Design. Cooper founded the creative agency 'Prologue'. Prologue initially located in Malibu, moved to offices in Venice Beach in Los Angeles in 2008 due to his success.

Kyle's biggest piece of work was the SE7EN title sequence which made him gain a lot of work after this 1995 film.

He has done the title sequences for films such as:

  • The Mummy (1999)
  • Spiderman (2002)
  • Dawn of the Dead (2004)
  • Superman Returns (2006)
  • Ironman (2008)
  • Sherlock Holmes (2009)
From this it seems that Cooper grew a taste in creating the title sequences for Superhero / Marvel Films.

Cooper also did title sequences for TV shows such as:
  • The Walking Dead
  • American Horror Story
I think Kyle Cooper is more of an influence for our group than Saul Bass' title sequences are. Cooper's title sequence are more modern and fit better with Thriller, Action and Horror films when looking at the work that he's done.
