Here is a print screen of the opening credits which inspired us to do our opening titles in our thriller
opening. The way how the titles come up are shaky, small and not clear which tells us that the rest of
the film may not be pleasant. Seven titles are similar to ours as the way our opening titles enter are
shaky and not clear, you can see this from frame 9 in our titles.
This is a shot from the opening titles of a stranger calls, in this shot it establishes the plot of where the
rest of the opening will be. This shot is telling us the narrative of the film as we can see that they are at a
funfair due to the fact of the ferry wheel. This shot links to our opening titles as we have a medium shot
of the girl in the bed which shows that the story will be based in the bedroom.

Here is another opening titles from Se7en, in the opening titles of Se7en mainly low key lighting has
been used which sets the mood and genre of the rest of the film. By low key lighting being used it gives
the audience that the scenes will not dark and scary due to the darkness being used.
This shot is from Dexters and shows the films titles, by Dexter using bold writing and blood writing it
lets the audience know that the rest of the film could to be do with killing. This title inspired us as it isbig and captures the audience attention due to the way the title enters and is presented.

From Dexter, a close up shot has been used to introduce us to one of the main characters. In our thriller
opening we also used a close up of the stalker as it shows the audience the importance of the characterwhich is being introduced. From this screen shot, you can tell that this character may be playing the bad
guy due to the face expressions on his face as he is not smiling, this is the same as when we introduce
our bad character.
The film Ring introduces its two main characters together during one of the scenes in the opening titles
as it tells the audience that the film will be based on these two characters. In our opening titles, we have
introduced our two characters together in one of the shots as it lets the audience know that the rest of
the story will be based on these two characters.

This image is from Dexters opening scene shows a knife which looks like it is cutting flesh. This sets the
audience up for the genre of a thriller as knifes are associated with killing and a bad imagery so as this isin the opening scene we associate it with badness. The main prop which we used in our thriller opening
was a phone to show the unknown making a phone call.
Here is a printscreen from mimic, during this scene it has music which begins to become upbeat
which creates suspense and tension, this type of music has inspired our opening titles to do the same as
we want to attract the audience. By Mimic having butterflies in its opening titles it shows continuity as
we see the butterflies in different shots of the opening titles.

This here is an over the shoulder shot from Flash forward. The over the shoulder shot shows
what the character can see. We used over the shoulder shots as an inspirtation to make the stalker
more mysterious as we can not see the characters face who the woman is talking to but yet can see a
figure. As we are making our stalkers identity unknown, using over the shoulder shots of him watching
the girl makes it more interesting as we want to see what he looks like.
