Opening- what we have came up with so far!

There will be opening credits and an opening scene to our opening. This will be no longer than 3 minutes long. The credits will appear in and out, fading slowing in an unusual font that looks suspicious to go with the "thriller" theme. This will make it more effective for the audience as we found out from our research that people like the suspense and tension building up in a thriller.

The next thing we discussed was sound. An idea for this was to have a background piece of music that changed now and again throughout the opening, depending on the cuts. To build up tension we thought to make the music faster or slower but keeping the same piece of music. Also we thought to add sounds in, like screaming, when its relevant. I thought this as it could relate to the film by the audience recognising the screaming when the main character kills his victims. 

There will be lots of short takes of Gabriel's photos of his victims, tools which he used to do it, how he did it and flashbacks of his past. When the opening credits are being showed it will show gabriel in his lab with a red filter indicating blood. It will involve lots of close-ups, panning and probably a few more which we havn't discussed yet, however will when it comes to our final decision on a story line which we are planning on doing.
