Analysis: The scene takes place in a bathroom, to which we then see clips of a young girl applying make up in a normal manner, between these shots, we see a toy duck floating about in the bath, assuming it was there due to her bath, the camera slowly pans out and a young man is revealed who seems to be dead in the bath next to the bobbling duck, the young girl then helps redo his tie before leaving the bathroom.
Sound: The sound of this opening uses an ambient, metallic eerie loop which is continuous throughout the whole sequence. It does get a little repetitive but still allows to hold a eerie vibe to the piece, and compliments the water shots well.
Editing: The editing is pretty slow, yet subtle and sleek, it's not over the top and allows the viewers to understand the setting and what is happening in the scene, the opening is much more lenient towards the filming aspect rather than editing side.
Camera: The shots are very static, but there are some very elogant and good close ups of the girl applying makeup, such as the mirror shot, and the close up of her lips. Also the 'Duck' floating in the bath is a very good shot and interrupts the static feel to the piece.
Mise En Scene: The duck plays a key aspect in the shot, allowing the potential dead boy in the bath to be viewed from another perspective. Another vital piece is the attire that is being worn, it is very smart and elegant perhaps indicating the night before may have been after a formally dressed meal or event.
Below are some screenshot's with some good camera shots, mise en scene and lighting.
