Main Task - Editing Style

This morning I watched 'Taken 3' and really enjoyed the editing effects within the opening sequence. It showed light flares along with jumpy, quick editing that used arch, pan and zoom shots. The shots also changed to the beat of the music giving it a very synchronised look but this contrasted with the jumpiness of the footage. I feel that if we used a similar effect in our opening sequence then it could show how distorted the world is for our protagonist. 

If we were to use a similar effect we would need to go out and film extra footage for me to experiment and work with but I think it wouldn't take long as before, which was just over 2 hours, because it would be very quick shots (about 2-5 seconds long). However I could also use the extra footage from the film day.

Here is the opening sequence to Taken 3:
