Skyfall

In the opening scene of Skyfall it starts very dark and blurry, with a unknown figure in the background, this sequence is very effective because it adds mystery, and tension to the scene, as the audience doesn't know what's happening. Then the figure is identified as James Bond, this will excite the audience as they know the film will feature things like Guns and car chases. The scene is very dark and it shows there is mystery behind Bond as a character, the close up shows a concerned look on Bond's face and shows the audience he is very professional in his job. As he enters the room there are a few bodies lying on the ground, this suggests action in the film, which would be expected from a James Bond film. The voice on the radio would be easily recognizable to James Bond fans as M, suggesting the film has major characters in it. However the room seen is very dark and it doesn't give away the location, so the audience doesn't know where the location is, this adds to the idea that the film is a spy film with secret locations and unknown killers. James then quickly moves outside to unveil that he is in turkey which shows the audience that the film takes place in exotic locations. The music in the scene also builds tension as it is very quiet but it makes listen to what is being said and what is occurring, as the scene progresses and Bond approaches the door the music quickly changes to some middle eastern music to tell the audience that there is a change of scene.
