The opening starts with a mysterious sound track that causes an immediate suspense and builds tension right from the start. It also notifies the audience it is most likely going to be a serious, action packed, intense film. When the main names of the companies who are presenting the film come on there is a dramatic bomb like sound which is very deep and impactful. This draws the audiences attention to the names and makes them seem very important; they ultimately want the audience to notice the names with this sound affect. They also bring the same
sound affect on when they show the name of the film. It is in exactly the same font how ever in red. This affect creates quite a bloody image and quite dark. It links the film to danger, blood, fighting and action. Also the difference in colour makes the tile stand out which is the idea. The way they have made it the same as the titles, font wise, is effective because it is only subtle. It makes the titles more mysterious and it seems like there is something suspicious going on. The opening sequence carries on with nothing going on in the background, just black, and with the mysterious, dramatic but at the same time emotional, sound track going on in the background. It then starts with background knowledge of the film and context so the audience understand what is happening and get a taste of what to expect. They have the word 'Replicant' in red which links that word to the title. Then the audience would question it and think perhaps how the 'robot evolution.. identical to humans' are going to cause something in the film. All kinds of assumptions can be made by the audience in terms of the story line of the film. This is effective as it leaves the audience wanting more and keeps them watching the rest of the film.
The setting and date of the film is then displayed in a large, clear font on the screen so the audience can understand exactly what is going on. Films don't usually do this as they usually only use an establishing shot however this film is set in the future therefore the audience need to know this; it would take them a while to get it however they could assume this through the use of robots etc. in the film. It does then open with an interesting establishing shot, using a drone to fly through the city and to be able to capture the whole city view and atmosphere. The moving of the shot is affective as it builds tension. This is supported with the sound track getting louder and building all the while the drone is moving. They could've also perhaps used a helicopter or something able to fly. The fire coming out of the buildings is all special effects and this is effective as it adds drama and shows how there going to be some war events going on- leaving the audience wanting to see what is actually going on. There are also sound effects of fire explosions which emphasises the fires impact on the city. Throughout these next couple of shots there are strange flying space craft looking machines which brings into context the time and era of the film- it is clearly way in the future. An eye is shown just before this shot and therefore it demonstrates a point of view, perhaps some kind of creature looking over the city. There are still sci-fi kind of sound affects that make the audience drawn to where the carera is flying over and the happening around the buildings. There are lots of colours and the picture has been enhanced to make it more aesthetically pleasing.
The human eye is very effective as it contains all the lights of the city reflected in the Iris. This captures the explosions in detail but at the same time from someones perspective. The eye doesn't blink one showing how it is watching and taking note of the setting. Perhaps the human is wanting to stop bad things going on or is planning on something. I especially like the way the explosion curves round the iris maybe suggesting the destruction of human. A victory sound track is played in the background when the camera drown in a angle looking up to the building suggesting it has high levels of prestige and importance. It then cuts to this colour graded shot of blue inside the building which creates a cold, mysterious, eerie atmosphere with one man standing alone, with little detail due to the mist in the room. The character seems to be smoking or using chemicals as smoke is coming up of from in front of him. The audience are left with wanting to find out who that character is and why he is standing in a smokey room. Perhaps it is his high shown previously and he has all these cunning plans. Or could he be the baddy in the film? Who knows? The creepiness and eeriness of the room suggests this but who knows.
