Health and Safety considerations:

Lighting:
When using either the red heads or the portable lights we must make sure that any waires are taped up and that the lights themselves are on a stable base as so thay do not fall and cause injury. GLoves will be used when handling these lights, especially when they are turned on to avoid buring

Props:
As we are planning to use knives in our film we must make sure that we handle them with care, especially around other people

Trains:
We are going to be filming at a train station so we must take obvious precautions to not endanger ourselves or other people that may be at the station

Synopsis of Thriller opening - David, Chris and Jamie

We want to keep the story of our thriller opening simple, but we also wish to make the veiwer want to carry on watching the rest of the film. We will do this through raising Enigma codes and use of restricted narrative.



The plot of our thriller will be based on a phycotic murderer who is pursuing a victim. We will base this in a village and the targeted victim will be at a train station when the attackes choses to strike. The victim is then taken back to a house where he is gagged and knocked out by the murderer, with the use of knives the killer will kill people from his list of targets. The list is kept in the form of pictures.

The film starts whilst the victim is on the floor of his house, there will then be a flashback and the story will follow from there.

Thriller opening analysis - Vertigo title sequence - David Duffy



Sound:
- Use of parallel sound - the orchestral music very much reflects the tone set by the images on the screen
- Orchestra - rises and falls in volume and tone to create a sense of uncertainty about the situation
- No sound created from events on screen as it is just a title sequence - so not useful in this sense

Camera work:
- highly effective use of extreme close ups - classic Hitchcock device, extreme close up of the eye as you can see emotion of the person purely through looking at there eyes
- Slow pans across the face of the woman - revealing her bit by bit - creates enigma codes, the viewer will want to know who this woman is

Effects:
- Immensely useful to us for our title sequence as we could do something similar with our title sequence
- Highly sinister and abnormal – makes the audience fell very disturbed

- Sequence not useful for establishing characters types – purely useful inspiration for an opening title scene
Open/Closed narration:
- Closed narration pretty much all the way through the sequence due to the fact that the whole of the sequence is an extreme close up of one woman – not useful for inspiration on using open narration
- No linear/ chronological sequence or binary opposition as we do not get enough from a title sequence to establish characters
