hot fuzz opening scene

in the opening scene to the comedy hot fuzz we see an extreme long shot of Sargent angle walking down a long core door for about 20 seconds this shows that he is getting the most screen time and is therefor the most important character.his costume in the scene shows that he is a professional at his job and also shows that he has some respect for the work hes doing the diegetic sound of the Sargent footsteps emphasis the power and importance of Sargent angel

 the fast camera work and short quick shots tell the audience that there is going to be action in the film also the fire a explosions in the training scene shows that this is going to be a film with a lot of action in it
the fact that here is a lot of action in the opening scene with the driving test ,fencing and cycling and then they decide to include chess in the scene shows that this film is a comedy because to put something in a fast paced scene and then to add in something completely slow and unexciting e.g. drinking a cup of tea or playing chess is a convention of a comedy

the name of the film "hot fuzz" suggests that the film is about police officers that are good at there job because the fuzz is a nickname that British people call the police. when the audience see the name of the film they know that the film is about a police officer

throughout the whole of the opening to hot fuzz Sargent Angel's face looks serious and dedicated to the job this shows that Sargent angel is extremely serious about his job. in the opening scene it also has a sense of a city location because we can see that the building that Sargent angel is very clean slick and seems as if it is in a city and in the background of some seems we can see large buildings that look as if they are in a city. this contrast to the rest of the film that is based in a small village in the countryside
