The opening scene starts with an L cut producing the audio first and then the video with a n extreme close up showing the spider behind the character. The L cut slowly leads. There comes a bit of a whip pan and a crane movement as the protagonist swings and reaches a hight. As the character next comes a tracking shot that indicates the movement of the protagonist or where or which direction the camera  wants the protagonist to go. The red and blue colour of the suit symbolizes that he is a superhero. The music is the non Digetic sound and the Digetic sound is what the characters in that scene are saying.


Next comes a worms eye view that indicates that the protagonist is swinging and covers the direction where the the protagonist is shooting the web. Then it cuts to a pan movement and with a bit of a fast zoom in shot comes that slowly leads to a tracking shot showing the protagonist in free fall. Then comes a fast cut that shows a truck within speed and a fast cut comes a fast cut to a close up shot. There comes a crane movement as the truck moves and another fast cut comes to show to subjects walking. There are multiple cuts to the establishing shot showing a police chasing a villain.

Then die to an another fast cut with another big close up show a characters reaction as the police vehicles are with the same speed as the truck and due to continuety of editing, comes another fast cut that cuts to a scene where the villain truck's tyre runs over the police vehicles. With a few more fast cuts comes a ground level shot which shows a police vehicle sliding. Another fast cut comes to an another tracking shot and another pan movement which again leads to a tracking shot that the camera is following the protagonist and then cuts to a whip pan movement showing the character swinging. There comes an another tracking shot showing the protagonist (spider man) in fast motion.

Due to more continuety of editing and a side angled worms eye view showing the antagonist comes a canted angle insider the truck container that shows two character entering the container which leads to an eyeline match cut showing the characters looking at the specific object. Another cut comes with a bit of pan movement and due to continuety of editing comes another pan movement as the protagonist goes to the villains truck with a long shot and a zoom in shot. With another fast cut, comes a side angled OTS of the antagonist as the protagonist and the antagonist (villain) converse with each other
