Indiana jones Kingdom of the crystal skull -action film


the first shot is an establishing / long shot , this introduces the location to the audience.
Right at the beginning there is some very tense non-diegetic music which makes the audience think something serious is about to happen but after a couple of second it turns into a very famous catching song "hound dog" by Elvis Presley , this gets the audience in a good mood. We then see a car drive past the camera , this helps the audience understand the period of time the movie was set in, the 20's.

The title for the film start appearing on the screen with one of them saying "A Steven Spielberg film" he is a very well known and respected director so this would excite the audience. Then Harrison ford's name comes up this will also excite the audience because he is very famous, so this would let the viewers know its going to be a good film.The titles were in a very plain font and were in black and white, this makes it look sophisticated and shows the viewer age range of 15-24.


Another type of car appears in the first , this time its military truck this is a connotation of an action adventure film.Inside the truck is a black figure holding a gun this gives the audience an enigma. The military and the other car which appears earlier on are driving next to each other , at this point you realise the size difference .The military truck is much bigger showing the idea of their importance and power over the other characters.


They also use a high angle shot looking down at the other car , this makes the military look intimidating. The cars then have a race , this is a connotation of the action genre, this tells us in the first couple of minutes what genre of film this is. Apart from this shot not many shot types and angles were used the majority of the time there were long shots.
