Throughout the rolling titles there is a mixture of different
instruments that I have heard such as a high pitched
keyboard but there is also a slight under tone of realistic
noises such as explosions and bombs.
As the rolling titles begin there is a very ghostly
sound that is played which builds suspense among
the audience which leads up to a climax of events.
As the main scene begins there is use of
diegetic sound of the explosions and fire bursting
out of the chimneys which many would be able to
hear who were in a close proximity.
Mise en scene
The lighting of this sequence is very
dark with a contrast from the city lights
as the action happens.
For the brief minute we see one of the main male characters,he
is dressed in a full piece suit looking very smart.This leaves the
audience asking who is he?
The setting for this scene has been set in 2019 Los Angeles
which looks to me as if it has been transformed into an an
inter-galactic city of the future as there are spaceship looking
air crafts flying over which is un-realistic.
Editing
The rolling titles at the beginning have been edited with
the effect so that they will present themselves that way.A
story has been expressed to the audience through the
titles which gives a little bit of background information to
the scene.
There has also been an effect put on the explosion,I
think the brightness has been adjusted to emphasise
the colour of the flames.
Camerawork
At the beginning of the first scene we are introduced to the
setting through an establishing shot which helps the
audience picture what it must be like to live in such a hostile
environment.The questions left asking may be:Is this really
the future? and Who lives there?
As the flames are shooting out of the
chimneys there is an extreme close up to
show the sheer power and strength that one
of these flames had to cause so much
damage.
There is then an extreme close up of a
persons eye which shows the reflection of
the destruction that lay before them.
Once inside the building a male figure
stands before us which is shown in a mid
shot.This shot has been used to show a
hidden identity as he has been hidden in
the shadows among a foggy background.
