our original idea for an opening sequence fluctuated a great deal during the actual process and we had to play around with our story line to what we thought was most practical and realistic to achieve, and we ultimately get us the best grade.
The main change that we made was to the story itself, our original idea that was based around drugs and the effect it has on people we felt that it was to impractical to film and we were giving ourself to much of a challenge to take on, we felt that it wasn't a part of the thriller genre and it would become too psychological
which would stray away from the criteria.
Having made the decision to change our story line we felt that we still wanted to go down the psychological route, but in a more practical and simplistic form. We changed our idea from drugs to someone with a mental health issue, who commits a murder; and spends the rest of the film trying to cover it up. We felt that by doing this we would still be keeping our theme but without straying too much away from the thriller genre, and it would also make it easier for us to film and hopefully by doing this we would have more time to edit our clips together and maximize its potential as a media product.
We also felt that when we viewed our product from a neutral perspective, and we analysed it as if we were watching it for the first time as someone else's product. We found that it wasn't completely clear from who's eyes we were viewing the situation, so we decided to complete some more editing to make it clear the persona of our sequence.
