Evaluation Question 1

Showing the title of the thriller over a blank screen. We used this because it would stick in the audience's head. Making it identifiable. The large font contrasts to the black background, making it easy to see and also letting the audience know it is important.
When we were planning our thriller opening we had to think what would be our USP to attract our target audience. We had to make sure that conventions of film openings were followed to maximise the chances of a succesful thriller opening.

Using famous London landmarks identifies this film opening as being a british film. The audience could relate back to it.

We studied various different thriller openings to understand the conventions of title sequences as they all mostly have a very similar structure. The reason films have a followed structure is so the audience can understand better. For example, leaving the title of the film a few seconds longer than the rest.
