Analysis of opening sequence (Its a Boy Girl Thing)



I am only evaluating the first two minuets of this clip as the clip is a lot longer than an opening sequence.

The sequence starts off with titles this is a regular thing on most opening sequences. Then it goes to a white and black contrast and shows characters been drawn to show how the main characters have grown up. This is a very clever way and very different as they don't usually do it like this for a movie. Also shows the opposites of how the two characters don't get along. By using digetic music and non digetic speaking to show the music that can be heard and showing the difference that the girl is reading and the boy is listening to really loud music. This shows opposites yet again between the two characters. By using jump shots it is also a clever way to switch from one shot to another to show the closeness of the characters and also introducing them to the movie. Using mes on sen it also shows the differences between the two characters as you can see the girls room as clean and tidy and siting down very elegantly as the boy was jumping around the room with a messy room it shows the opposites of the characters.
