Enigma - How did they do it? L
Insidious opening sequence
Mysterious observer
They show a point of view of someone
walking around the house at night with
a shadowed hint on the window
Mysterious/scary reflection
They show a refection of the female
making the audience want to know
who she is and why she is there at
night watching over people
Credits and shots
During the credits they show shots of things for
example the inside of the house making the
audience watch more in why these are significant
and the titles because they portray ghost like
things making the audience want to see more
about ghosts
5. Kaya
Enigma L
How are we creating enigma in our opening sequences…
• By not telling the audience why these girls are haunting this room so their
audience will want to find out more
• The audience will want to watch more to see what relevance the dolls
have to this closet/house and why they’re always coming back
• At the ending of the opening sequence we build a climax to a sudden
shock/scare getting the audience excited to watch more
• Finally to see what happens to Laura in the closet and further of how the
ghosts disturb her
6. Kaya
Enigma L
How have we improved from draft 1?...
• Since draft one we have improved greatly on how we can create enigma.
• We have gone through many ideas and various genres to create a very
creative and versatile mind to what excited and interests our target audince
• By creating a questionnaire for our target audience to see what they find
interesting and what they don’t
• Researching type of films and themes or concept grabs the audiences
attention to watch more
• Watching many different genre of films opening sequences to understand
what makes enigma and realising what does not

How have you developed your characters since draft 1?
• We developed our character to be less dark and a lot more relatable to a wider range of
our target audience
• We made the character one age rather than a variety so its less confusing
• The clown and doll have been developed into a spiritual characters who rather than look
like the dolls to 2 girls with a doll and clown toys.
