RESEARCH- Holiday homework 1

Skyfall

The opening of skyfall was very dramatic as it started of by showing the main character drowning and then someone grabbing his hands. This keeps the audience straight away on the edge of their seats and curious on whats happening.

The camera was mainly under water, they zoomed in to the main characters eyes twice one at the begining and again at the end. The camera work was very effective because it showed many close ups and wide shots showing the surrounding.

Editing in the opening was very important because the there was many jump cuts showing different scene. The also used fade in and fade out effects from one scene to another.

The sound they used was music from Adelle, there was no other sound effects like sound of water or gunshots it was just the music playing.

Mise en scene in the opening was very effective because it establishes the kind of genre this is and tells you more about the main character. The main character that was drowning was wearing a suit which shows he was probably in an important position of work. The man was holding a gun shooting, The gun shows that this movie would probably have a lot of action.
