Description and questions we thought about for our idea for the opening sequence

Why you liked it generally ?



Because it creates suspense through out the opening sequence enabling the viewer to understand who will be involved in the kidnapping without giving to much information.


How it feeds into narrative?





The opening sequence will feed into our narrative as it introduces the nanny and what her daily routine is normally like. Tt does not give away too much information about why or how Sophia got kidnapped but it introduces the significant event by leaving us slightly suspicious of the nanny’s involvment. Her delayed reaction to the girl’s dissapearance will make us wonder what her agenda is, and make us want to carry on with the story.

How it might appeal to your audience, target?



As the story is of the thriller genre, it will appeal to a wider range of people, not just a specific type of person. Suspense entices any sort of person to want to know what will happen, however the story of the movie will appeal to a younger audience as we are enticed by the enigma and excitement of the opening sequence.



How will it hook the audience?



The way in which the audience would be hooked is by the enigma, and all the questions one would start to ask themselves, like “Whats the nanny’s agenda?”, or “what’s gonna happen to the young girl?”. The suspense hooks the audience.

Why it will look like a thriller



The enigma is the main element that will allow the film to be of the thriller genre.



Technical ideas (camera shots, mise en scene, sound, editing),
Mise en Scene:
-We want the setting to look as if it is stereotypically a  wealthy looking house
- smart looking nanny  (mid-length skirt, tight shirt, pulled back hair)
- well light house
- could be a rainy day


 We did not carry on with our ideas because we had a slight problem with the actress.We might come up with a new idea because although this one is good,we think it may be too short to film and not as exciting as out new idea. We will probably keep the background story line similar but shoot something else.
