  2. Media product use as a help The study of film openings helped me a lot in terms of my development. To firstly get an insight into the media and film world and to take a look behind the scenes was an important point to get to know how movies are made and what is important when doing an opening scene by myself. Furthermore, it is crucial to have the right equipment, doing filming which means a camera, lighting, the location etc. AS Media Studies Mr Kesson

  3. Representation of social groups Our opening scene is based on the opening of ‘Scream 4’ which means a horror film. Hence, we had the typical situation of boy – and girlfriend watching a horror movie and suddenly becoming part in their own. In terms of stereotypes, we had the scared girlfriend, the annoyed boyfriend and the mysterious killer who’s face is hidden to the audience. AS Media Studies Mr Kesson

  4. Media Institution Looking at ‘Scream 4’ the media institution distributing the film was ‘Dimension Films’, therefore we are probably going to take the same to make our opening more realistic and authentic. AS Media Studies Mr Kesson

  5. Audience The audience our opening focuses on in the horror movie scene. Like Scream, Paranormal Activity and many others, this movie is especially for those people who like the excitement and the scary facets in movies. Mostly young people therefore, roughly aged between 16 to 30. AS Media Studies Mr Kesson

  6. Attract and address the audience An opening scene in a movie is crucial for the producers to make sure they attract their audience by thrilling them to watch the rest of the movie. This means that characters, location, filming and music as well as several other factors are decisive. To make sure that we are addressing our audience, we tried to create this atmosphere of a horror movie which creates tension for the watchers. Even though we didn’t have further equipment to create such a mood, we decided not to show the killer to the audience so that finding out who it is forces them to continue the film.

  7. Progress in technology For me doing this project helped me getting a better understanding of the technology used in terms of working with a camera and editing programs. I never actually did a movie scene or its editing before so that that was a quite new experience for me. However, Tii is doing the main part of the editing which means that I am not that much into this sector because we divided some of the work to get it done quicker. Nevertheless has my knowledge improved due to the media project. AS Media Studies Mr Kesson

  8. Preliminary task compared to opening scene In the preliminary task we did in march, about 2 month ago, we were filming a conversation using the 180 degree rule. Reflecting back I can see a progress in terms of the camera usage and the editing. We improved our abilities in doing the filming and the directing of the scene and I think that overall we did a good job. AS Media Studies Mr Kesson
