Our final thriller opening sequence
The idea
Although our original ideas have not gone quite to plan, we have not given up and I have really wanted our finished product to be a professional looking product that flows and is a good opening thriller sequence!
The original lift idea would not have been particularly effective and had a lot of flaws and we could not really see where it would lead from a further narrative perspective.
The idea of doors came to me and I thought of some kind of possible detective mystery thriller where there is a mass killer and the detective is searching for the right door to go through so that he can find and take him down. Although the name 'The Door' was not seen as a great name, today at some point we will quickly need to think and decide on a new more effective title for our film!
I think that the planning and production stages, although they may not have gone quite as well as we hoped, have been majorly improved from our previous children's film opening sequence!

The music
We have got inputted some pads of music that we will use at points during our opening sequence. We had previously had a soundtrack running throughout but as that was repetitive and not totally suitable for our thriller we decided after feedback that we would mix in some dietetic and non - diegetic sounds!

Editing of the opening sequence
We are in the process of shortening parts of the clip so that it will gradually speed up as it reached the end and we will add in the music and cut it together so that it will build the tension in the sequence.
We will then add in the locking clip scenes
When the music is into the timeline then we will decide when the pads of the drones and sound fx

Music
We needed to change the music to a more low beat tune and gradually speed it up, for tension and to create atmosphere and to set the mood.

We need to:
- Shorten/ cut the clip length - speed it up as it goes along
- Create some mew music and sounds
- Create a new name
- Alter effects for opening sequence
- Add the locking clips
