When we first discussed the ideas for our opening sequence, I really liked the idea of creating a thriller and setting it in the Victorian era, however when we did some research and looked at cost of getting the costume and props the idea of doing something set in the Victorian era lost its appeal. Then we came up with the idea of 70s/80s and that sounded slightly unusual to fit with a thriller genre so when the idea of having a stalker who may or may not kill the girlfriend of the boy she's in love with it sounded very unusual but like something that could work and would be interesting. It's also not something that is done very often and therefore would appeal to people more as its something new and unique.
When we eventually decided on doing the 80s for our era, I was really pleased with that as we could have a lot more fun with the costume, background music, make up and props of our group. The film could be made to look like something its not to start off with and therefore really intrigue the audience.
We then began storyboarding our opening sequence and deciding what settings and props we would need. As of now, we are all set to film and have arranged to do so on Sunday 29th January. This will mean that as of next Monday we will be ready to begin editing our film together. I am slightly worried that we only have 3 weeks left and no footage although we have a very clear idea of where we're going and what we need to do.
