At the beginning of the clip the music fades in which helps to create tension and a bit of a build up to what is about to happen. Wolverine says "What is this place" then is cuts to kids playing basket ball and the sounds of kids playing and bouncing a basketball, when you hear the sound of children playing it sounds like an ordinary school, but then there is a bit of dialogue  which is a young kid saying "hey you're not aloud to use your powers" that is good as when they say it, it sounds as if they are saying it casually as if the powers is not a big deal. the clip then cuts to a boy using his powers to run across water and the voice over says at the same time "this is a school for gifted youngsters" this is good as it shows that you are meant to be fully aware of there powers and look it as a common thing. Cyclopes and Gene come onto the screen as the voice over says "Cyclopes, storm and Gene were the first of my gifted students" with the sound of Gene using her telekinesis to move the clay pigeons so that Cyclopes can shoot it with his laser beam. you can hear the beams in the clips, which is theory could be a different range of sounds as no one actually knows what they sound like. It then cuts to a class of students with ability and with professor x's voice over it seems like calm environment as the music changes as well to more of a slow chilled sound. You hear the sound of the lighter and the flame as the boy uses his powers which makes it seem more real. As it come to the end of the clip the music quites down to it finally stopping when Bobby says "Welcome to mutant high" this give off a good affect as the audience is paying full attention and takes in what Bobby says.
