1. What is revealed to the audience?
The main character (Richard) has gone backpacking in Thailand in search of adventure and something different from America.
2. What is conventional?
- the main character is introduced,
- Mise-en-scene: set in a foreign country,
- Titles: white lettering on black background,
- Camera: there is alot of zooming, tracking and panning; a static frame is rarely used.
- Sound: high tempo non-diegetic music, almost club like in style.
3. What is unconventional?
- A voice over is used throughout the opening which gives some background information on the main character.
- Very bright colours and there is an orange tint on many of the frames which makes the action seem very surreal.
4. How has it inspired me?
The use of a voice over is very effective in building a bond between the character and the audience, although it does comprimise on the realism of the film.
