Production Log 6

This week we have been looking at opening sequence devices for example sound, it can be used in a smart way to create a effects. Also the shots used should be effective as this is the part that builds up the whole movie and entices the audience.

What have you learnt about opening sequence devices?

• Well we have learnt that sound can be use in a way to create tension and allow the audience to pay more attention to the screen, if there is silence it takes away the detail from the sound and adds it to the screen so it helps the audience establish other things such as location of social class from what the characters are wearing. Also sound can be used as the faster the music it could create tension in the opening sequence which could be combined with shaky hand movements to make the opening sequence seem less professional, meaning it is most likely working class.

How will this impact your production?

• This will impact our production as we could as it has given us ideas on how to change it so the audience can pay more attention to certain themes. We will have to be very smart in using these techniques so that we can carry out what we want to do properly.

What methods might you use in your opening and why?

• In our opening we will  implement it in to our opening sequence as silence could be used to could be used to allow them to pay attention to clothing and location. The music we are going to use will be quite fast to build tension and match some themes that feature throughout the film such as violence and drug abuse.
