Analysis of the opening sequence of "Up"

 

 
 We chose to include the opening sequence of up on our blog due to the fact that we thought that the narrartive was fairly similar to that of the one in our film. "Up" is a 2009 American computer-animated comedy, drama, adventure film produced by Pixar Animation Studions and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It was directed by Pete Docter, the film centers around an elderly widower named Carl Fredriksen and a young wilderness explorer named Russell.
Our initial inspiration for our film came from watching the opening sequence of theis film. We were intrigued by the way that the film showed the relationship between Carl and his wife through the years starting at a point where they are both young children to the point where they reach old age. We decided that we wanted to show the relationship of an elderly couple and we thought that showing flashbacks to their relationship when they were younger would add a sense of depth to the characters. We also thought that it would be a nice change to show a representation of an elderly couple because most romance films show young couples in their late teens or twenties.
