We were set the task to plan some film openings (of any genre) using jelly babies to help us by adding them into each shot.
The reason we were doing this is because it helps us prepare for creating our actual film opening, to make sure its not too complicated as an opening scene doesn't give to much away.
This is the film opening we created, the genre of it was horror, It starts off with a house in the middle of no where in pitch black then it moves along to showing the little baby asleep, the teenager on her computer, and the mum and dad asleep, next we go to a forest which is next to the house which is dark and scary later we then see a man wearing a mask in the forest and lastly we then see the house the next morning in daylight.
By doing this task it has taught us not to over complicate things, you don't want to have to much in your opening because you don't want to give away the whole story line, you want to keep it as a open narrative so there is still things to come. We thought that our opening was a good idea (as a horror with a house out in the open) but I thought mine was too complicated, you just want to set the scene and not add to many things in, your just introducing the film and it's genre.
