For our opening task we have chosen to create the opening sequence to a Crime - Drama, to start of we looked at different openings to crime - dramas for TV shows and films such as The Blair Witch Project, Stranger Things and The Missing which is a student film. After looking at these opening sequences we thought about the conventions of a crime - drama, we came up with:
- Mystery
- Realistic characters, settings and story lines
- Tension
- Journey of character development
After working this out we decided on a storyline. We are basing our sequence on the disappearance of Genette Tate, a girl who went missing at the age of 13 and has been missing for 38 years, making her one of the longest missing people in the UK, we are setting it in 1978, Aylesbeare but with a modern twist.
After deciding the plot for our opening sequence we looked at the Narrative Enigmas which are:
- Where did she go?
- What happened to her?
- Was it planned?
- How long has she been missing?
We will be filming in 3 different places:
- Sidmouth Road
- Aylesbeare
- Within Lane
We will be using both our digetic and non-digetic sound. the sound of the cars and the girls talking will be our digetic sound and the echo of girls talking and emphasised door clicking will be our non - digetic sound.
We will be using a few shots to record our opening sequence:
- Match on Action
- Low angle shot
- Tracking shot
- Over the shoulder shot
- Close up shot
