The frame we see is a a book, giving hints on what the film may be about and the production company 'New Line Cinema' it the far right bottom corner, because of this,the audience can assume that this is some sort of thriller as 'New Line Cinema' are known to make thrillers.
This could also be assumed because of the tensious non-diegetic music which consists of deep boomings and a high hat at a slow pace, this could imitate the heart beat of a person as it.and gives of a omnious feel. Towards the ending, the pace suddenly fastens, this could represent the change in mood in the film, from building tension slowly to sudden action.
Sound fxs are also used in the opening sequence, these add more tension to the music because it kind of makes the audience assume that a criminal is at work when linking it to the quick images and flashes if props such as blades, books, pens, drawing etc.
Normally in the opening sequence we would see:
Producers indent, Distributor, Director. Stars. In Se7en it instead goes Producers indent, director, stars because they have known actors such as 'Brad Pitt' and 'Morgan Freeman' in the film.
