childrens action film

In the opening seconds we see is a mid shot of the sun which gives a warm feeling to the audience. There is a happy theme which reflects and sets up that 'A bugs life' is generally going to be a happy film. Opening scene gives an equilibrium of the film.

- birds singing, bright colours, blue sky, happy and energetic voices/music, amusing characters, cheerful music, orchestral beat easy to listen to and follow fun beginning with humour, innocent faces of characters, no evil ones yet. - Makes audience in a good mood. 


A possible moral is already shown; work together to get the job done (ants shown working as units to gather food, their method of survival) this shows that working as a team is a life important skill. This moral also gives an indication of what the rest of the film will be about and revolve around.
