2. 'Captain America: Civil War' genre
is clearly constructed throughout
this opening sequence. The genre
of this film is action and
adventure and this is signaled
many times throughout the title
sequence through editing and
mise-en-scene. The Soundtrack is
orchestral with a fast paced tempo
to it. The percussion is very fast
paced which gives the audience an
idea of the genre the film has.
3. Another way in which action and
adventure is presented to the
audience through the title opening
are the shadows of the moving
objects. In this screen shot the
moving object appears to be a
machine gun which is a strong
sign suggesting that the film
involves some sort of war, violence
and death. The titles are also
deliberately placed on the
silhouette of the machine gun as
the two colours contrast each
other so that the titles stand out
more clearly.
4. I also noticed that when the main
actors names were shown their
character was presented in some
way. Here we see Robert Downey
Jr. name presented to the
audience and we also see the
shape of iron mans mask. This is
also done with all the main
characters to show the audience
what superheroes they are.
