As a group we watched two interviews and took some notes on it, this helped us come up with some ideas for our opening sequence.
After watching the whole interview, I learned a few interesting techniques that I already knew and some that were new to me. The main objective of an opening sequence is to attract the viewers into the film and make them want to carry on watching the rest of the film. Effective ways of doing this are cliff hangers and suspense, it is important to get the opening sequence right as it can set expectations for the rest of the film. We decided that we wanted our introduction into the film to be griping and leave you in suspense. The whole opening sequence needs to be set at a fast tempo to keep the interest of the rest of the film. In the interview, Kyle Cooper said that sometimes it is not best to use computer generated images because you can use more simple ways to get the same effect.
Now that we have watched both the interviews and seen Kyle Cooper’s ideas, we can base some of our ideas on what he said. An example of this is to make sure that intro to our film is gripping so the viewers want to keep watching. We also learned that we have to make our intro easy to follow as there is a lot of jumps between the two groups of people (thugs and business man). If we make everything flow together then our introduction will be really good
