The genre of our opening sequence is a mixture of action and musical. Therefore, with the genre of musical, part of our soundtrack will be the digetic sound of a song sung by one of the characters, to convey the conventions of a musical genre. This is most likely to be an upbeat and dancey type piece, in which the character can relate to the lyrics and it is relevant to the narrative.
A film that this could be compared to is the opening sequence for the movie 'Hairspray'. Like our opening sequence, Hairspray opens the film with a song to set the scene, relating to the narrative. The opening song is also fairly upbeat, immediately grabbing the audiences attention and conveying the feel of the movie.
