I think in the rough cut we showed a good concept of the opening sequence however I do still think there is plenty more to add and change about it. For example since the rough cut we have gone out and re-shot different parts that needed to be redone for instance the beginning0 shot of the girl sleeping and the shot of the bus going by when the 'mysterious man' disappears. We reshot this as we could see Sophie run behind the bus in the shot so it didn't look as smooth as planned. Unfortunately I think some parts of the rough cut can come off quite humorous for example when Kirsty walks past then and he is behind the bush and just stares at her so we might have to remove or think about some parts before the final edit is made. I think we did a really good job on conveying the ‘ is the man real or a subject of the girls imagination’ through the different imaginative shots we used and props that give away some of her story e.g the medication. At the start of the opening the sound it very tense which I really like as it gives an unsettling feeling and a literal alarm when the alarm suddenly goes off, however we have not yet had enough time to complete the sound scape so that is another thing we are looking to developing in. As well as this we will also shorten the titles on a blank screen at the very start and move half of them onto moving image.

We included all of the key props in our opening sequence that we wanted to give as an indicator into the character of the girl. For example her diary, alarm clock- set at an early time, and her drugs/medication. The locations we used were generally dimmer and grey looking so it wouldn’t be associated with happiness. The first shot of her away from home is very isolated and looks abandoned this was done purposely to emphasise how vulnerable the character of the girl is. I also like the shot of the alley way because it further emphasises the vulnerability of the girl. The costume we used for the 'mysterious man' was well executed as i feel we done a good job hiding her Sophie’s identity in the hat and long coat so she can pass as a male. As well as this the costume we used for him seemed quite sinister which is good as this is an aspect we wanted to convey.

I think we used really good use of lighting to fit the convention of our genre because generally the lighting is very dull and bland which is what I usually see in thrillers as there is hardly any bright colours. As you can see in the majority of pictures from the rough cut the lighting is dull. However as stated previously the first shot of the girls character in bed we experienced bad lighting.

The characters done a really good job of portraying what we wanted to portray in the opening. Kirsty played her part really well as fear, anxiousness and worry was conveyed really well. Likewise Sophie who ended up playing the 'mysterious man' committed to the character really well despite not being the original choice

We used many different and interesting shot types in our opening here are examples of a few that i especially like. The over the shoulder shot of the man staring at the girl and she is out of focus. Another shot i think is great is when the girl is walking down the steps from her house and the camera is placed on floor height, and finally when there is the tilting shot of the isolated location into a long shot of the girl walking.

At one point in particular the order of shots didn’t make sense it was when the pills had been washed down the sink and then the girl suddenly had them in her hand again. The shot where they were washed down the sink was at 1:07 and then the shot where she held them was at 1:08

We found that in these shots at the beginning of our film opening had very bad camera quality and as this was the first shot we are using we decided to re-film it. The bad quality and noise on the camera is most likely due to the bad lighting. However in the other shots the camera quality is much better and there is no problem.
