Interesting Film Opening Sequence

For my opening sequence i chose The Football Factory.

Camera: The camerawork in this opening sequence is very clever - there is a part right at the beggining letting you know they are thugs when you have the view through a cctv camera. most of the camreawork is just tracking and following the movement of the mob.

Sound: The music in the sequence is very tipical to the likes of football huligans, the sort like franz ferdinand or other stuff like that, and rave music when they're fighting obviously just to up the tempo a bit. There way they talk is very indescrete and open minded, i suppose you have to be to be in a firm. They have ther own lingo they add in to make it clear they're all as one and not from around that area, but you dont understand this until further on into the film.

Editing: The editing is all very calm during the first couple of minutes, but when it hits the fight.. (they all seem to be buzzin' and anxious to start on this rival firm) the tempo of the shots picks up and you become more involved in the scene.
