The beginning starts in a black out screen with a news reporter speaking diegetically. A sound bridge then occurs as the sound then carries on into the first high angle shot looking down upon a group of people looking at presumably the TV in which the man and woman is speaking from. We know they're are standing in a coffee shop as there are coffee titles on the walls and cakes are in the bottom right corner of the first shot. The titles are shown against the black background in white bold writing. The writing remains the same when we are taken out of the coffee shop and onto the streets of london in 2027 shown by the writing over the shot.
The music is quite piercing as the camera zooms into the TV showing pictures and videos of the youngest man in the world who has now died. This makes the audience think how is he the youngest person, why have no more children been born? The sounds of the road are realistic and probably non diegetic from the car engines and people walking and talking.
The buses are quite run down emphasising that man kind is dying and losing strength and people to create and repair the needed objects. There is then a tracking shot of the workers in an office watching clips of the victim crying and showing their upset emotions towards this incident. This moving shot allows the the audience to view not only one person devistated but various mid shots of many people affected.
