The Film Opening Of Brick

This is another film we seen in class the film opening of Brick which was made in 2005. I have made notes on this film which I am going to talk about below. 

This film is based on a dead girl underneath a tunnel where her hands and hair is slightly in the water, as she lays there died. The camera mainly focuses on her bracelet round her wrists and view of her legs and heels. When the camera shot is towards the boy the focus changes and blurs. A boy is looking over her whilst she lays down not moving. Flashback are in the film where it shows her hands putting a letter through someones locker. Throughout the film opening it has a non diegetic sound which is a sound of bells, which then turn into school bells as the shot of the girl putting a letter through the locker. This is called a sound bridge because the sounds overlap. The camera shots used in this opening is Close up, Extreme close up, and long shot.

This is one of the shots below of this opening scene.
