Quantum Of Solace - car chase scene

This car chase scene includes some crucial elements that we will need to use for our car chase scene. They have used fast paced editing. This is to keep the audience on edge. It also immediately indicates the genre of the film which is action. Editing is crucial when trying to build intensity and excitement. We will need to use fast paced editing in order to achieve that tension for the audience.

The camerawork in this scene is also crucial in building tension and excitement. There are many different close-ups of different parts of the car for example wing mirrors, gearstick, number plate. This is to slowly reveal the identity of the car which in this case is an Aston Martin. I feel this is an effective way of building tension and also fits in with the fast paced editing. We need to think about this technique when filming the car in our car chase scene.

The sound is effective in building tension and excitement. They have used diagetic sounds from the cars. For example the sounds of the exhaust reving and the wheel spins. I feel this is something we can implement into our teaser trailer. However I feel we could include some music alongside the diagetic sounds.

They have filmed it on a long windy road leading to a tunnel. We will have to think about about finding a suitable location where we can include some of the relevant skills to make the teaser trailer effective.
