Sound effects & use of music

The scene opens up with a build up of tension, the music suggests that the character is in a rush. As the music starts to quite down the characters actions brings in the cars sound effects. The twist of the key indicates the engine turning on and therefore the turning of the engine and the cars sporty noise brings in the significant sound effects. As the car shoots through the traffic, moving in and out, the wind effects are used as well as the cars aggressive roar and the sharp gear changes are all loudened and given to the audience to understand the significance of the characters rush. This carry's on throughout the steady speed of the car until the car makes an entrance into the race where the sound effects of the blasting smoke coming through both sides of each tyre and again the sporty noise of the modified car is all significant towards the race of the film.

What makes a good opening scene?

A good opening scene should be entertaining, interesting and want the audience waiting in excitement for more. An opening scene should grab the audiences attention, the opening scene should give the audience the genre of the film or hint. The location should be identified for the audience to know where the place is. The opening scene could give us one of the story lines of the movie to keep the viewers watching and to give the audience a taster of the narrative. The opening scene should include many different techniques, from catchy music to fast paced editing and in my opinion the most important element to a good opening scene is the element of suspense. All these key points will significantly improve an opening scene to a high degree.
