This is our preliminary video that we made to help us develop skills to use in our actual film opening. We included examples of match on action shots (the shots showing her walking through the door at the beginning), shot reverse shots (between her and the sandwich), and we kept to the 180 degree rule. This task helped us to understand the various effects of combining shots and different shot lengths, for example we thought the build up of intensity made through the repetition of the shot reverse shots was effective.
However, when making the real film opening I think that we should add a greater variety of shots and more camera movement to make the story more engaging, as well as improving the editing to make the film smoother and less disorientating for the audience. Furthermore, the mixture of different genres and styles in this preliminary video - the horror aspects of the soundtrack and the Western style intense shot-reverse-shot of her and the sandwich - are not particularly clear. To develop and improve this, we will research into the conventions of various genres if we continue with this multi-genre style.
