Damaged goods
A really successful thing about this shot in the opening sequence is that they have used an extreme close up which shows that they have used creativity in their opening sequence. This shot emphasizes the fact that she is putting on lipstick which shows the audience that make up might play a big role in the film.
The text doesn't interfere with film as it doesn't drag your full attention to the opening credits which is good because then you can be immersed into the film more instead of dividing your attention. The text lasts 4 seconds which is a reasonable amount of time for someone to read it.

| Scene 1 |
 |
| Scene 2 |
In these 2 scenes the editing is done very well as the cuts are done precisely and keeps it flowing. The fact that these cuts are here makes it fast paced keeping the audience's attention.
The fact that the protagonist in this film is a teenage girl it appeals to the target audience of 16-24 year olds. This appeals to the audience of young adults as it may gratify them in many ways.

| Second shot |
These two shots are repeated in the course of the film which is very successful as it gives a clear narrative to it. This makes it simple for the audience to understand it instead of them getting confused in the first two minutes of a film.
Bridges
There are many unsuccessful things with this opening sequence. One being that you can barely see the opening credits and the fact that the typography is squashed together doesn't help that the audience out in reading it. Also the fact that it lasts only half a second to a second long makes it harder to read

| Panning |
The panning used between 25-30 seconds had a shaky camera and the speed of camera movement changed throughout the pan. This doesn't work as it makes it unprofessional and it takes the audience out of the film as also this pan is supposed to a point of view shot. I would've re filmed this with a steady tripod.
 |
| Shot 1 |
 |
| Shot 2 |
The edit between these two shots were not put properly which also makes it uninteresting for the audience to watch. The cutting between these two shots have to be more precise.
In this scene the sound jumps. In this scene the sound is quite loud but in the shot the sound is not there making the audience puzzled and also bored as it is not a good scene to have there. makes it unprofessional. They needed to look at the sound in more detail when editing. They could've used a wildcat soundtrack.
