Intro choice
I chose to study the intro to Apocalypto. The intro is an effective one, it starts off with suspense and instantly lets you know of its setting. It also starts you off with a bit of humour to lighten the mood before the movie gets darker and more serious.Apocalypto tells of the time long past, when the Mayan civilisation faces its downfall the rulers insist that the key to prosperity is to build more temples and offer human sacrifices.Jaguar Paw,the protagonist, a young man captured for sacrifice flees to avoid his fate.An amazing movie , packed to bursting point with stunning cinematography, superb acting and overall authenticity.WATCH IT!

Fantastic that you have chosen your opening scene. Now you need to begin the assessment itself, with a post describing what happens in the scene, how it fits into the film as a whole, why it appeals to you and including a link to a video of the scene. Look at the O Tamaiti exemplar to see the depth required in your answers.
