Transformers 4 Opening Scene

Use of Camera: At first we get a long shot of an object out in space, this allows us as the audience to feel confused or curious as to what the floating object is. We get a shot from below the object entering earth, this shows tat this object is meant to be more powerful than us as it is looking down on us. We get a close up of a creature, from this we can tell it is a dinosaur. We then get a close up of a hand, this makes us think that this may be the hand to either to protagonist or the antagonist. We see a lot of explosions and terror, this indicates to us that this film is likely to be a sci-fi action film.

Use of sound: We get some eary noise at the beginning which is slightly quiet. This helps add to thee effect of it being creepy or even evil. We then get the sound of some dinosaurs this shows us that this is going to be taking place a long time ago or hat they have been reborn. We hear the dinosaurs screaming, this makes us think that there is an evil which is coming to kill everyone and take over.

Use of titles: At the beginning of the scene we get to see who the film has been produced by. The company it was produced by was Paramount Pictures and Hasbro. The word transformers appears, this is because this is the name of the film. It then has the effect that when the meteor goes through it the title disappears.

Mise en Scene: We can see that this thing that was taking over earth was from out of space. This makes us think that this film is taking place in space as well as in a deserted location on earth.

Editing: The camera zooms out, this allows us to see what else is happening around it that we were able to see before. This can allow us to piece together what the object was.
