Opening sequence research

Research Figuring out how to start my opening sequence was difficult as it would instantly set the theme and tone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8twthdaqB8 After watching several opening sequences I decided to go for a mysterious start. To achieve I included no introductory music and a small section of audio indicating typing. By only having this section of audio singled out it draws importance to it.

It is the roots of theatre and a key component within film language. It displays the visual information in front of the camera and this information is essential to communicate. In Mise-En-Scene there are 5 main elements; Settings and props Costume hair and makeup facial expressions and body language lighting and colour position of characters and objects in the frame Setting This important part of film making doesn't just mean the background of a scene but its overall tone as well.When finding areas to film it may be hard to find so some sets are built from scratch. If this is too hard to do location recce's find areas for the filming that already exist, however this may take a large amount of time. In some cases settings can be used to mislead audiences and build certa
