Aldnoah.Zero Episode 1

This episode uses visually striking long shots not just for eye candy but to pique the audience’s curiosity and set up the forthcoming expositions. The two shots below raise the questions about the moon’s destruction and the gigantic ships orbiting the Earth, by doing so the viewers become more attentive and receptive to the details later provided by the exposition. This is a simple but effective usage of visual stimuli to inject interests into expositions.
