Analysis of Opening Scenes.
The 3 different intros we watched were very different. Goodfellas had the established main character explain what was going on through narration, Man on Fire had text and speech to help explain what as going on and even though City of God used narration the opening was a lot different from Goodfellas.
The use of non-diagetic & diagetic sound worked very well with Man on Fire as first it was just normal then it quickly built up to create the tension, it was also mixed with ambient sounds such as the crowd sounds and children shouting. It worked very well and we’re thinking of involving the technique in our introduction.
When the film started the first thing we the viewers saw was the various company logos involved in the film, then it came up Denzel Washington on a black screen to draw attention to his name, because if someone likes his acting, they might be drawn in more to watch all of the film. The other actors were all introduced over the film, as they’re not as important.
