james bond opening titles



Editing: Was very unusual and abstract composure. Blended from animation to real. A sequence of a continuously rolling animation scrolling over various shots of animated action. Symbolism of cards used e.g. diamond in the man instead of bullet.
Camerawork: Match on action at start- picks up gun and you see a man go to shoot at him- quickly turns around and shoots at cameraview - the traditional James Bond gun barrel appears with him in center and freezes- blood appears to run down the screen.
Sound: The James Bond casino royale theme tune starts up and continues loudly throughout the opening.
Mise-en-scene: Public toilets - all white - contrasts with black tuxedo and red "blood" that runs down screen. Gun laying on floor with James Bond leaning down to pick it up.
Titles: Titles fade in and out in amongst the action happening across the animation. Simple white writing.
