Opening sequence of Skyfall
Setting and colour
During the car chase there is a crowed, thin street they drive down, this suggests the film is not set in this country. Another factor that suggests this is the word 'Polis' written on the back of the Polices' jackets. This then tells us the film is set in Turkey.
The chase is filmed in broad daylight with bright colours, the audience clearly needs to see the drama that is unfolding. The orange and yellow colours of the market to complement this and match the feel of the lightness.
Costume and design
The main character is wearing a grey suit, this shows sophistication and wealth and also suggests the film is set in the present day due to the high fashion suit.
The technology in the room we see also suggests it is set in the present day, computers, headsets etc.
Music
In the beginning when he is cautious of danger, the music is tense and high pitched to create drama.
Then there is casual drum music as he enters the car, he is laid back and calm, this is his job.
The music then gets more tense and faster, something is about to happen.
The sounds of the car crash and gun shots represents violence, a change to the casual drum music heard only seconds ago.
The type of music is from the country to complement the set, mysterious bongo drums makes us unaware what is about to happen and captures the audiences' attention.
