Panic room analysis of opening

1. For the majority of the opening sequence noone in particular is involved so noone is really being reperesented. Toward the end of the opening sequence however, a woman is heard having a conversation with a friend this conversation invloves a piece of property that sheintends on buying saying that it is perfect, so she could be represented as a person with very specific needs. This is neither positive nor negative at this stage
2. The titles for the opening of Panic room are large, white font placed at the side of buildings.These do not specifically fullfill the conventions of those in a thriller film.
3. Something that does fit the conventions of a thriller in Panic room is the music, which begins slowly and calmly but then prgresses by getting faster to build tension. The opening sequence of the film appears to set up the setting as all the shots consist of high rise buildings and side views of streets in new york, this also changes at the end of the opening sequence when the shot is changed to being amongst the crowd of people who are walking. These shots help the viewer understand that it is set in new york during a busy time.
4. Without the music, this films openign sequence could be that of any other film genre. As the titles all appear palinly in new york.
5.columbia, this is a world known company, well known for its big budget films. they can afford better effects and technology.
6. the panic rooms suggests to me that someone is going to be trapped, in a high stakes situation inside a panic room. 

children of men analysis

1.Diego Richardo is being represented in the film's opening as the world's youngest person, he is shown to be a positive figure amongst the public as he is well known and is often asked for autographs. He is also shown to be rude as he spits at one of these such fans. As Diego Richardo doesn't ever appear properly, there is a man who is represented who asks for a coffee, he is shown to be different from the rest as he doesn't pay attention to the news as the crowd around him are doing.
2. Again the credits are white against a black background, this does suit the thriller genre.
3.The camera begins pointed down at the crowd, which is gathered in the coffee shop, possibly to show just how vast the crowd is and the expressions of everyone who is there. This would be to emphasize that the man who gets the coffee does not care, whereas they do.When he leaves the shop, the camera keeps panning so that we can get a good view of the environment surrounding the man and the plot.
4. At the beginning we hear about the death of someone who is clearly a very important person to most people in the world, that is being created. We also witness a building blowing up and someone screaming in a  high pitched manner amongst the smoke of the rubble.
5.Universal Studios is part of this film
6.The man who is being followed and got the coffee might try to find out why no more babies are being born and change that. As it is clearly a big feature of the story that the world is full of old people, the younger of which was 18 years old.
