Opening sequence for Tracy Beaker

The opening sequence focuses on using drawings to illustrate, which was taken from the cover of the books. The main character is both in person and in cartoon. The other characters are mostly in cartoon apart from a couple of seconds of footage where you see everyone other important character in the tug of war shot. By just looking at the opening sequence there is a equal amount of males and females which could show there is a shared gender audience.
He colours used are very uni sex with a blue to a pink with shows the programmes diversity of gender and children find brighter colours more entertaining. . This signifies she is the main character to the audience.
Because of the programme being a book by law they have the writer name and the illustrator but apart from that there no other information. There is non digetic music over the top which fits every movement with the rhythm and the beats.
The time frame of the opening is 20 seconds and it has enough time to understand the programme is jumpy and fun.
