Opening Sequence To Adulthood

The use of non-diegetic sound to connote the theme of youths in this scene. In some of the scene they have used a realistic sound effects to match what is on screen and create a more powerful impact and more intensity to the scene. I can use this sound because it can help me reflect my own theme in my opening sequence. I have noticed that in the scene, when the characters have started to talk, the music turned down so the dialogue can be heard. Some opening sequence start with silence which is effective because it creates anticipation for the audience. I can use this silence in my opening, because it can make my scene powerful to grab the audiences attention.

I had a look at the trailer and I have noticed the music was being played in the background, from beginning to end of the trailer. Every time there was a scene when someone was being punched the dynamic of the song was much more louder and effective to create a reaction from the audience. The film was set in London, it represents the life style of the younger generation who are involved with gangs (crime, drugs etc...) back in 2006.
