Analysis of Opening Sequence “Napoleon Dynamite”

The music that was chosen by the director sets the mood of the opening sequence, also it parallel to the visuals on screen so the audience can then match up the two and get an idea of what the movie is going to be about. The music also has a narrative that gives an idea of what the movie is going to be about. Character establishment is important in a film opening so that the audience knows who he story is about and who it involves. And by establishing characters the audience can get an idea of what type of movie its going to be about. In the opening sequence there are only two characters established  the director shows this to give the audience an idea of what the movie is going to be about and who the main characters are which suggest that they are important. In this opening sequence there is minimum dialogue so this means that sound effects are important as it i need to keep the audience interested. The music is parallel to the shots that the directors choose. The director had to choose the correct music to set the mood for the opening sequence. The creativity of the opening sequence is important as it is another way to keep the audience involved and interested. The director decided tha it would be creative Credits are used in a shown on cut out drawings. As the drawings look childish shows movie was maybe about a childhood. I did not enjoy the opening of the film I don’t think it appealed to me. The opening was boring and it didn’t hook me and want me to watch more.
