Thriller Opening - Twilight

Twilight - Opening Sequence

Twilight opening sequence:

The opening sequence has slow moving shots at first.

It starts of with the girl talking about how she wanted to die. This is a voice over to the video clip, which could suggest that she is dreaming of an event that happened to her.

After she stops speaking the camera shots move a fast pace, with a lot of action going on.

There is non-diegetic sounds playing as we concentrate on this animal. There are soft violin noises to start of with – which could imply death, but suddenly changes to heavy drum sounds beating to give the impression of that something is chasing it.

For a split second we see the man grab the deer, then the shot goes to the girl.

This could tell us the animal has been killed, and the girl had a flashback of a event in her past.

The colour of the opening shot and the rest of the film has a blue/green tit to it. Which implies to the audience a cold feeling.

The shot of the car reverseing of the drive, we notice that is a left hand drive car, so it is not based in the uk and as the camera is inside the car it makes you look out the window as it is more brighter compared to the girls face, and when it cuts to the aeroplane we know that this base is somewhere in deserted quite area??? Except when we see the airport, but it still isn’t very busy
