R+P Post 8: Our opening sequence idea, to include sound and titles

Plot:
Our opening sequence starts with Grace checking the girl she is stalking, Ella's, social media pages and looking through photos of her. She then discovers that Ella is now dating her ex-boyfriend, and this causes her to become extremely jealous and angry.
She then recieves a Twitter notification informing her that Ella is now on the way to the gym. She then continues to get ready to go out and stalk Ella and packs her bag with gloves, a camera and a knife which she will use to hurt and attempt to kill Ella.. While getting ready she checks her mood board that she has with pictures of Ella and scribbles Ella's face out on one of the pictures.
Once she has finished getting ready she runs out the door and pushes past her brother who asks where she is going. She does not tell him where she is going and proceeds to run out of the door.

We will only use one setting for our opening sequence which is Grace's bedroom, by keeping the whole opening sequence in one setting we are creating a claustrophobic feel for the audience.

Titles:
The first source that we took inspiration for our titles from was the Art of the Title website (www.artofthetitle.com) as the website shows the titles for a large number of films that we could take inspiration from.

We took inspiration from the Dexter titles and we liked how the text was overlayed onto the clips and so planned to do this with out titles. 

We also took inspiration from the Unfriended titles as the Unfriended film has the same main theme of social media as our theme, and they used titles which appeared to be typed onto the screen, and so we decided to use this style as well. 

We researched many recent films such as Iron Man 3 :

to eventually come up with the wording that we want to use for our titles.

The titles that we plan to include are:

• Directed by Prudence Carter-Phillips
• Produced by Gabriel Meytanis
• Starring Celine George
• and Ella Thompson
• Edited by Josh Oranu-Noah
• Follow

Soundtrack:
We chose a soundtrack which creates an uneasy atmosphere, the track is called "Saw The Devil" and is composed by Alexis Smith and Joe Henson; it can be found on AudioNetwork. The track builds up and climaxes at certain points which we think will reflect the building up of emotions throughout the opening sequence.
