1) The first frame shows a long shot over viewing New York with the titles appearing on screen. The titles indicate the distributors of the film, being Universal Pictures and Marv films. The titles stay on screen as a push in shot occurs, and we hear a single piano note with a background beat, which creates the feeling of beauty or pride as we stare at the entire city. Also, the sound blends with the next scene as it shows the two main characters alone in a waste dump with so much open space and a great view of the city behind them.
2) The next frame shows how the push in motion has occurred, as we are closer to the city than before. The same white bulky text has been used, which generally has a sort of cartoony effect when looking at it; it allows the viewer to imagine it being similar to a comic book. The music starts to fade and a voice over of a young girl takes place, introducing a character.
3) The next frame introduces characters. You see the two main characters, but it allows the viewer to see the twist in stereotypical super hero stories as we see what we think to be a geeky or nerdy student, with a young girl who is pointing a gun at him.
4) Frame 4 is of the reaction to the young girl shooting him. The viewer receives some context to the previous scene as we see he has a bullet-proof vest on, allowing the viewer to realise they are practicing and experimenting with things rekated to violence and crime. This scene also allows the viewer to realise these are the two main characters, as firstly the boy has a bullet proof vest on and is experimenting getting shot, and the girl is obviously another main character as she shoots him without any hesitation and enjoys doing so. The viewer realises these are not two average teenagers.
5) Frame 5 shows us the title to the film. It is on a black background and is a bright orange colour. The viewer can start to imagine this being like a comic, as the title is big and colourful and stands out, like a comic book title. In addition, the start of up-beat video game style music begins, creating the sense of it being like a super hero movie.
6) The sense of it being like a comic book really starts to stand out when a title appears on screen in frame 6, and is identical to the type of title you would expect to see in a comic book. In addition, the voice over of the male main character begins, as he explains how he met the young girl and explaining who she is. The volume of the music is slightly lowered, but is still there to strengthen the comic book feeling atmosphere.
7) Frame 7 is similar to initial frames, in the sense that it is on screen and returns to the previous font type. However, the music and voice over is ongoing during this frame.
8) Frame 8 shows the actress of the young girl, whilst she is standing there watching the person who gave her a lift to school drives off. The shot pushes in on her to centre all the attention on her as it shows the viewer who the actor is, and what she looks like.
9) Finally, frame 9 is similar to frame 8 as we see the boy in what appears to be his usually surroundings and the viewer is hinted to focus on this character, which is indicated by having him in the centre of the sofa, whilst listing featuring names to one side of the frame.
To conclude, the 9 frame I have created shows how titles have been appropriately placed, in accordance to sound, to create the feeling of the opening being like a comic book through types of font and the music being like music you’d expect to hear in a super hero game. This suits the film as it is based around super heroes, which relates to our product as our idea includes having a power as well.
