An opening sequence is the initial part of a film, television show, or video game that sets the tone and introduces key elements. It often includes visuals, music, and sometimes narration to engage the audience right from the start. This sequence can establish the setting, introduce main characters, or hint at the central conflict, helping viewers understand what to expect. In many cases, opening sequences are designed to capture attention quickly. For example, in movies like James Bond films, the opening sequence often features action-packed scenes that draw viewers in. Similarly, in TV shows, the opening credits may include a catchy theme song and visuals that summarize the show's premise.
