Action Opening sequence

Wonder Women(2017)

At the beginning of the scene. Groundwork of the story is laid to narrate the story before and future, voice-over is heard to narrate while we see the earth in which a character is not seen to be speaking.

To show the power of the wonder women and how organised the organisation is, there are cross-cutting editing shots show the delivery of the important letter in the suitcase, while the main character walking to the office. Also, extreme long shots of the location（The Louvre）established the setting and give information that she works in the Louvre and a fabulous office. This is not usual, which means she is not usual. In addition, the actress that the film chose is representative of the action film.

Furthermore, The old photo of five people is shown to be the connotation of the story, eye-line match  editing shot is applied. The genre of the film can be shown by  the props(weapons, battle suit at the background of the office).

I like the zoom shot(the earth---> the Louvre), it's represents the aim of the storyline (save the planet). Beside, Graphic match is applied as the transition of the Adult Wonder women and the young Diana who loves fighting and born to be a warrior. Also, the colour of the scene when she was little was colourful and bright. This make contrast when she is in the Louvre, which is blue and dark.

Generally, this is a relatively successful opening sequence, however, the transition between the two different era is not so perfect, because the change is too obvious.
