My ideas for the film opening sequence

1. Detail on the target audience – who are they? What other media do they engage with?
(Psychographic profile)
The majority of people who has answered were females between the age of 17 and for
psychographic profile, most people wanted to see ‘horror’ and ‘Romance’ however we combined
it into a ‘Romantic Thriller’ Genre overall. Meaning we should target our genre towards teens
and young adults. Most people had chosen ‘by not having plans on a sat night’ as it was to be the
man situation that they would likely experience.
The genre of your opening and the signifiers of this (as discovered though your real media
research) What your audience are expecting to see?
We chose a ‘Romantic thriller’ as our opening sequence. The majority of the audience did not
mind weather the main character was male of female. 55% of people did not mind seeing a
stereo-typical or counter-typical character. The opening sequence is preferred to be both
narrative and character. It had also been shown that the most popular choice that the audience
wanted the music to be was ‘mystery-esque’. The audience chose a variety of places for the
opening sequence to be set at. We as a group then chose to have the filming at a house to make
it seem more creepy and secretive.

3. MY WORDLE

4.  The opening sequence will start with dramatic, mystery-esque music whilst
showing an establishing shot is of the house. The setting is an suburban street
in the middle of a cold dark day. The camera will move towards the door that
has been open slightly.
 When the camera switches to being in the house it shows a picture of an army
man in his uniform then it will show the destruction that has happened within
the household, with blood all over the floor. As the camera moves along the
floor it will reveal a female hand that has blood all over it. The scene then
quickly skips onto the next scene where a man is lying in the blood filled bath
where he has been murdered. This will create mystery and tension for the
audience
 The main character is then revealed when, sitting on the floor curled up in a
ball crying and shaking with fear. She will have the basic clothes on but will
be looking like she is disturbed.
