This is in red writing which slowly fades into white writing this is foreshadowing what will happen into the film, because people who have seen previous films or have read the book know that Bella will turn into a vampire, so the red fading into the white symbolises this, Relating to this, images of veins are shown with blood being removed from them which also helps in foreshadowing the plot of the story.

Also throughout the title sequence it the camera pans over different scenary this is in order to set the scene and its location in the film. The scenary is shown in dim colours this is in order to set the mood of the film and starts to give an insight of what to expect.

Because the film is a part of a saga it shows a black wolf which relates back to the previous films, in order to highlight that what has been seen before is expected to be shown again in this film. The end of the opening sequence finishes with showing who was the producer and involved in the film which shows that they are not seen as the most key important people but they deserve recognisition.

Casino Royal Opening sequence



Analysis

Casino Royale was the 2006 James Bond film, with Daniel Craig as the lead actor. The film is twenty-first in the Eon Productions.

James Bond already carries a huge following so although the storyline is not continuing into a sequel film, it still relies heavily on the audience who have already seen previous James Bond films. Another point which would increase the audience numbers is that it is Daniel Craig's first film as 007. This may entice people to see the film as they would be intrigued to see how Craig would compare and see if he would top previous Bonds. Pre sold audience.

url.jpgThe title sequence is animated which breaks convention, throughout the sequence many silouhettes of cards are shown, this symbolises to the audience that the film is probably gambling and card games, as well as this animations of guns are shown along with a silouhetted fight between two men, this highlights again that the genre of the film is action alongside with thriller.
