Changes to our Opening Sequence

When filming our opening sequence we made quite a few changes along the way which had great significance to how our opening sequence turned out. We decided that it would be easier to have main character die by just being beaten up, rather than being stabbed, as it would be a lot easier to show this in our opening sequence and it was something that we felt could be easier to film. By changing this I think we created a more successful way or showing our main characters death, as I think we would have struggled to try and make him look like he had been stabbed.

Another big change we made, was that we didn't have the 'gang' chasing our main character like we had planned in our story boards and ideas. We felt that it looked a lot more empowering and intimidating for the gang to appear and seem to have a more calmer state of mind, so that it built up more tension for the audience.

in addition character acting in our film opening sequence were unreliable and did not turn up in all shooting which made us to compromise and make some sacrifices in our private lives.

Locations REECE

These will be two of our main props. The knife that we will use is to stab our main character so is an important prop within our opening sequence. We have included the mobile phones in this, as it is stereotypical for teenagers to record events like this on their mobiles, so we will want to fit in with the genre and apply this in our opening sequence and have the gang members to appear to be filming what is going on.

costume and Props List

Costume

These are the type of clothing that we want our gang members and our two main characters to wear. This style suits our genre because the typical style from a british genre is quite commonly known to wear tracksuit bottoms and trainers so it fits in well. We want our characters to wear darker colours to emphasise how they do not want to be seen and hide away from society.
