spy kids 4 opening sequence analysis

spy kids- 4 all the time in the world  

The opening sequence of spy kids does use the conventions that i expected to see within the clip. For example some of the code and conventions that the clip uses is 1) a car chase scene right at the beginning of the protagonist going after the antagonist.2) we also see props that are used like ropes, for the protagonist to get to the villain at a faster pace and also gadgets for the protagonist to contact her husband. This shows us that the film is based in a more advanced world. The reason why the opening sequence has been used for the particular film is because the film is called ‘SPY KIDS 4- ALL THE TIME IN WORLD’ and by starting of the film with the close up of a black watch it gives us an instinct of what the film is going to be about. The ideas which i like the most are how they start of the sequence with the antagonist entering the scene with the stolen item which belongs to the oss. I like this idea because it gets straight into the film and we know exactly who is who without being told the names or having to go deep into the movie we can already tell that he is the villain. Another idea that I like within the opening sequence is that they used a medium shot of the spy targeting her prey right from the start of the movie. I like this idea as it shows from the start that there is a mission that needs to be completed and you are able to tell the genre of the film. The opening sequence represents people in different ways for example the protagonist is dressed in all black and is wearing High heeled shoes. This shows that she’s at work and also shows that she’s from an upper and important class. Also right at the start we have a close up of her facial expressions to show that she is a serious person and that she seems quite focused. Whereas the antagonist is dressed in a all black suit which shows that he looks like a professional person who has an interest in business but the first shot we see of him is a wide shot of him walking out of a cafe which gives us the impression that he is just an average everyday man with his briefcase and we wouldn’t  suspect anything of him. The audience for this opening sequence would be kids/teens who are into gadgets and technology. I know these because of teens of today’s society are into things that have to do with technology. The opening sequence keeps the audience interest by wanting us to know what is going to happen next after the antagonist has been caught straight from the start and also the spy is pregnant so we want to see what happens after she has her baby and if anything has changed. The title behind the films appears right at the beginning before anything starts. This is to show who produced the film ‘troublemaker studios’ which gives us an idea on what type of genre the film is and is going to be about.
