  3. Elements of production in the opening sequence

  4. What camera work has been used and why? • Opens with birds eye view - sets the scene and location of the city • Tracking him flying around - captures his movements and feels we are flying with him • Close up shot of guy in truck - shows his anger and facial expressions • Two shot of track man and Spider-Man - shows the interactions and concerns of man seeing a creature like spider man CAMERA WORK

  5. What sound is there? What effect does it have on the narrative and characters? • Opens with Non diegetic - creates an atmosphere and exciting feeling • Car sound noises - shows it’s a city and busy • Screaming and cheering - shows he is feeling powerful and having fun flying around • Police car - show he is causing trouble and unusual and inhumanly thing • Gun sound - only way to stop him as he can’t fly so it’s easy to run away SOUND

  6. What editing techniques have been used and why? The editing in the opening sequence is limited and only contains a few techniques, this can be effective though as it keeps our focus on the individual scene and the events that are taking place. - Long opening shot - easy to follow and track his movements - Matching on action with different clips - shows different perspectives and other things that are going on - J cut - cuts on action EDITING

  7. What narrative is given to us, and from this what do we expect the rest of the films narrative will be from the little information we have seen?

  8. The narrative given is that an unusual and un human thing is flying this connotes spider man. Spider man is seen flying from building to building, which we then expect the rest of the film will continue to be this way. We assume the action and excitement will increase and become more intense and it will continue to be spider man in control.

  9. Who is the target audience for this film, how do we know this from the opening scene?

  10. The target audience for this film is family friendly and appropriate. It’s action packed and a film that children will enjoy and want to watch. A film like spider man is very well known and trusted to be a well created and succeed expectation. Its a film that has high expectations and is targeted at millions of people be indulged to watch. Not only is it targeted at children and young adults but its a film that adult would enjoy too.

  11. What is the genre of the film set up in the opening scene? What key conventions have been used?

  12. The genre of this film is action. Its clear as from the opening of the scene we see spider man flying which is inhumanly and not natural so its an action packed movie filled with superheroes. Key connotation key conventions used is its dramatic and action packed. It has the flying, police chasing him, the angery public and the uniform to represents his character. All these things make it clear that its engaging and aimed to create action and excitement.

  13. How many characters are introduced and what do we know about them? How do we know this about them from the use of technical aspects?

  14. At first we are introduced to what we connotes the main character. From a technical aspect we know he is dressed in a red and blue suit which covers his face so we are unaware of what his body and face looks like. This makes it hard to see his facial expression and create more of an imaginary. We are introduced to him from a bird eye view which shows us a badge on his back of a spider which suggest his status of being spider man and to make people aware of it. We also see him in high key lighting so its obvious to recognise him and get a full insight into the action that is happening around us. We are briefly introduced to a van driver we is anger, probably due to the fact the police are trying to chase Spiderman and stop him so the van is stuck in traffic. When the man and Spiderman interact we can clearly see the man doe not want to talk to him and tells him to go away. Eventually the man gets a gun out and tries to shoot Spiderman, the scene then ends of that.

  15. Do you think this is a successful opening scene?

  16. It was a scene that draws attention in but it doesn’t give a lot away. That may be done in an effective way and it starts of slightly boring but then allows room for the action to be built later on. It sets the setting and the location of the city and introduces the main character which is successful.
