Opening Sequence Ideas

After changing our synopsis, in order to make our story less cliche, we came up with an outline of what we wanted our opening sequence to look like. From the start we liked the idea of using a yearbook because it's creative. After much discussion, we have come up with a rough final idea....

  1. We will open the sequence with an aerial shot of the front of the yearbook, presenting the title of our film and our production company name. Our own music that we have composed will be played whilst this is happening and it will carry on throughout.
  2. Then, our geek character will open the first page which will include credits, and pictures, which the geek will stick down. (Like he is creating the book).
  3. The pages will then be turned over, introducing the different stereotypes in the school with a voiceover of the geek expressing his thoughts towards these groups of people.
  4. The first three pages, will be showing pictures of the dancer, the actor, and the band, which we will zoom into these photos and switch to a short clip of them.
  5. After those three, we will show the other stereotypes with short clips overlapping each other, getting faster and faster, to emphasise how many different 'cliques' there are. They will get faster and faster to give the impression that he is flicking through the book really fast.
  6. Then it will come to a sudden stop, and a picture of the geek will be shown. Then the voiceover will help lead into the film..
