The opening sequence of The Last Song introduces the main characters and location through a series of establishing shots. Sad music plays over faint ambulance sirens as the first main character is shown. The film's title is then displayed along with the names of the two lead actors against a plain background. Supporting characters are also named as establishing shots of the main location fade in and out, with dialogue playing under faded music to set up the storyline. The introduction concludes by showing the girl who is the main character in different angles of the main location before the music ends and the story begins as the characters collide.
