Baby Driver- The opening scene of Baby Driver follows a team of bank robbers escaping the cops in a fast-paced getaway scene.

Shot 1:

 This is a wide shot that shows us a city bank. From this we can immediately tell that these setting is a big city, and we can safely assume that some sort of robbery is about to be committed. It is also the establishing shot which shows how much of this film is dependent on robberies and crime.




Shot 2:

This is a close-up shot on a character's face. This is followed by three other close-ups on other character's faces, showing how these are going to be the main characters throughout the film. From this shot we can see that the character is feeling a mix of determination, fear and anger. We can apply this to the establishing shot and now, it is certain that they are involved in a bank robbery.



Shot 3:

This is a wide shot, used to show the fast paced action going on. We see Baby perform a very impressive and reckless drift to escape the cops, which shows us that he is extremely skilled driving but also takes risks, which is shown how seconds later, the car is inches away from hitting the camera.
