quantum of solace oppening scene

 

in the action film James bond quantum of solace, the first shot that is shown is a wide long shot of the location which is clearly not the usa or britian. the first thing we see is a mountain (an exotic location) this tells the audience that this could be an action film. The audience can also see that there is a lot of fast shots in this scene which also tells them its an action film. Another reason the audience know its an action film is because there is clearly a chase scene involving guns and fast expensive cars. the guns in this scene help create a sense of danger because the audience feels like the hero (james bond) could die at any minute

There are explosions in this scene as well so this instantly tells the audience that they are watching a film with a lot of violence and action

Quantum of solace has a large male audience who watch James bond films so they can escape their lives for an hour or 2 and feel like James bond, this is why there are a lot over the shoulder shots from Daniel Craig so the audience can see what he would be seeing. in this scene we see that james bond is wherein a black suit and tie this gives the veiwers the imprssion that he is upper class and gets paid a lot for his job it also creates the impression that james bond is a proffesional

the audience can tell that this is a high budget film because of the explosions the stunt director has used and because the fact that they have the money to waist cars and other vehicles just in the opening couple of minutes the fact that the film was filmed in an exotic location also shows that the film has a large budget
