Project 6: Opening Sequence Sound Analysis - DYM HW4


I, Robot- 2004 - Opening Sequence


Sound analysis:

-The clip starts with sounds of movement in water and bubbles rising in water, which matches the pictures shown on screen. along with the swishing sounds this helps the clip connote futuristic themes

-As the title come on screen, music starts to play which greatly increases the impact of the title and gives the film a more epic atmosphere

-The music progresses to become more suspenseful as the 'laws of robotics' enters the screen, making the audience uneasy in regards to the laws

-As we see the characters underwater in the car and hear them hitting on the glass, the music becomes more tense and the narrative progresses

-As the window breaks a loud shattering noise is heard, contrasting to the other drowned out sounds and shocks the audience

-The alarm clock sound is very intrusive and interrupts the flashback
