Today i watched two film openings. The first focus was on Hot Fuzz, i personally found this very engaging. Obviously its done to entertain the audience and it builds tension through no dialouge and only a loud sound of paceful music being listened to by the audience. This sound is proboly done to illistrate his personality, career situation or give some sort of clues about the genre of the movie and upcoming events- fights etc.
The opening to a siren-post production police siren gets the audience's attention immediately, this also contrasts within society as sirens means there's trouble ahead or something bad is currently happening. This initially starts to pick up the pace of of the scene for the viewers and keeps them intregued.
The man walking tawards the camera gets the viewers asking questions like 'Who is he? what is the purpose of his character?' The zoom into his feet i found was a very unusual shot but also a clever one  (this involve mis-en-scene)as plain black working shoes showing what position he is currently at, meaning he is active and that his job has some sort of uniform. I can see many cuts in the shot of him walking (as him simply walking would not be entertaining enough for us as a audience) these various camera position reveals where he is going and his 'destination'  and also where he is coming from, shown through long shots of his back is filmed and pan shots to follow his pace of walking- which is fast and authorative. I also noticed a slight error in this filming, the automatic door opened when the male was entering the room; but as you can see he is not even near the door and they instantly open making it seem in continuous and unrealistic. I am going to ensure i do not make these minor mistakes and although i repeatidly watched this and only realised after several repeats, its still a error that needs to be avoided. I like the zooms into his shoes and would like to use this for the killer in my production. I am also impressed with how the footsteps matched the walking of the male this takes precise editiing and detailed examination of movement.
Personally, i found this one of the most useful opening clips and am truly inspired in how they made a normal walk into something dramatic and overwhelming.
