Types Of OS

Chapter Forty-Six

I have been researching lots of title sequences and have come across some very contrasting thriller openers. There is the opening sequence which foreshadows the events in the film, with a few names, companies and the title of the film being shown, sometimes the opening gives away information such as dates and locations. An example of this is Mississippi Burning. There are sound effects and dialogue in this sequence.

Other Opening Sequences can be very abstract and give very little away. The OS to Casino Royale is an animated sequence with music and important names and producers information. We see it is a thriller/action from the use of design and animation showing a man running. 

This opening sequence has little dialogue and is almost purely non diegetic music. 

Preperations

Slow-motion Scene

Chapter Thirty-Seven:

"Nothing is Impossible- The word its self says 'I'm Possible.'"

Slow Motion

For the shots where Michael is looking after young Evangeline it will be dramatic and tense to add slow motion, this will also add an artistic feature which I think is important for our film. The non-diegetic music will add to the tension.
