The Opening sequence for Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone differs from that of a typical opening as it excludes the use of credits and starts with the media company, warner bros, and logo of Harry Potter. After this the first frame establishes the location by stating the name of a road. During the first three minutes the audience has already been introduced to the main characters. The score for the film is basically the same for all the films with minor changes and remixes as the characters grow up which helps reflect on their childhood. The score also fits the fantasy genre as it includes a lot of orchestra and choir singing. Another example of a fantasy theme tune is in the film Edward Scissorhands.
However, this film has different conventions to Harry Potter as it has opening credits to those who have starred, produced, written and directed the film.
