In Adutlhood's Opening scene the producers use this close shot of Jacob Anderson (Omen) to portray how shocked he is about how Ben Drew (Dabs) has just shot someone while they were trying to steal someones car. This is additionally effective as the camera is focused on Jacob whereas the camera is not on Ben which shows how Dabs wants to leave the scene quickly as he has just shot someone whereas Omen cant believe how he was part of a shooting.

Opening Scene 5
In Adutlhood's Opening scene the producers use this effect of scene overlapping and title use to create a solid scene. Red Madrell's (Alisa) face is shown fading out whilst the title background fades in which shows how time is passing and the previous seen where Trife dies in Alisa's arms has moved on. Also the title gives a sense of how much time has passed and also the title stands out and can be seen clearly which adds to its importance as it sets the time scale for the next scene.

In Adutlhood's Opening scene the producers use this High Angle shot to portray how the death of Trife in the previous film has now become insignificant and how time has passed and people have moved on from his death. This is also a clever scene for Adulthood and it shows scenes from the prequel Kidulthood and gives the audience an idea of what has happened in the previous film. The camera shot / angle is also effective as it shows the audience everything that is going on in the scene and that we are not part of the drama as we as an audience cannot intervene with Trife's death.
Opening Scene 3
In Adutlhood's Opening scene the producers use this Medium-Close Shot to emphasise that Noel Clark (Sam Peel) is the centre of attention in this specific scene. Noel Clark's face is blacked out to show that people watching this film for the first may not know who he is which give the impression that he is a mysterious, dark character. Also the scene is shot in front of Noel Clark to give the impression that we are in the shoes of the victim and that we are intimidated by him. Furthermore in the background the other people are just standing looking at Noel which also gives the impression that they are either to scared or weak to intervene with him.
Opening Scene 2
In Adutlhood's Opening scene the producers use such shots as the Point Of View shot above to make the audience feel as if they are part of the film. This shot on the wing mirror of the car is very effective as it shows how Ben Drew (Dabs) and Jacob Anderson (Omen) are emphasised in the shot. Furthermore the camera is focused on the wing mirror which adds to the emphasis and also blurs the environment around wing mirror which is also very effective. Also the camera angle is purposely slanted to show that the wing mirror is angled towards the actors which adds to the created realism of the scene.
