1. The opening sequence of Juno is very effective; it helps give the audience a good overall prediction of the film. The diegetic music is a very quirky downbeat love song which helps show that in the film love will develop and will be very strong. It is very cherry and happy which shows that she is happy with her lifestyle being contained as a child.
2. The mise-en-scene is also very effective and plays a very important part in representing the forthcoming movie. The animated opening scene is very creative and smart which may connote to Juno’s character. We see shots of Juno walking past some suburban houses in her local area which connotes that the film will be very low key.
The colour scheme of the mise-on-scene is very colourful showing colour of a baby blue, yellow and green. These colours are very childlike which connotes that Juno is still a child and is stuck in her own bubble of frozen time. The leaves falling from the trees show time passing and establish the time of year which will become important as she is pregnant. We also see Juno walk past an acoustic guitar which shows her retro interest in music
3. Juno’s costume is very unisex which connotes her character to be very tomboyish, as she is wearing a blue jeans which are very stereotypical, a red sweat top and converse shoes; this also shows her in an indie view as she is very individual and doesn't seem to care what people think.
4. The sunny delight carton she is drinking connotes her individual style of a bland diet, it also shows her childish nature as it is a drink mainly aimed at children, as we already know she has a childish nature this makes it even more obvious that she is in her own world
