Analysis of Opening titles.

Analysis of James Bond- Skyfall http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxNG-3W9i3k
The opening of James Bond is about 3:50mins. Within the titles we first get show the Producers who present the film.Then we get the main actor who in this case is Daniel Craig who acts as James Bond of course. We then get a title straight after his name saying 'as IAN FLEMINGS's JAMES BOND 007 in'. This the author who wrote the James Bond books. Then it Carry's on from in to the film title 'SKYFALL'. While all of these credits are going on there is a scenes of him which looks like he is drowning and getting pulled underneath the water. We then get a list of titles naming who is starring in the Film, The music is still going and we are still getting a series of underwater images, the next one is a target of James Bond and he has bullet holes in it and the bloody is all cloudy in the water.And the camera shot then goes into the hole and then goes into the next scene
 with more titles, the images behind this is now of a woman underwater the camera shot of this is a vertical panning shot so that you see the whole of her body up and down. As she is rising we then get a shot of a gun being dropped in the water and disappearing in the sand on the sea bed, this then gets another name next to it.
We then get a whole new scene which looks like is has been animated but still underwater where knives are dropping and the camera is going forward into a graveyard straight into one grave at the end. This then disperses into what looks like blood vessels.
Now you are starting to build up a story on whats going on, so I think that that the woman shot James Bond and then he died and then he is then coming back to life or going into another world as it looks like he is meeting Somone at the end as there is someones eye.
