Final piece!
The starting credits are an important part of any opening sequence, they must provide the information necessary while keeping the atmosphere of the sequence. For our credits we are going to use photoshop as it will allow us to create interesting and original text. once the credits are made we will edit them into our sequence using final cut. We made a list of possible names for our credits:
Thriller As A Genre
We thought that our Thriller '3igma' would best come under:
Horror Thriller:
In which conflict between the main characters are mental, emotional, and physical. What sets the horror thriller apart is the main element of fear throughout the story. The main character(s) is not only up against a superior force, but they are or will soon become the victims themselves and directly feel the fear that comes by attracting the monster's attention.
AND
Psychological thriller:
The conflict between the main characters is mental and emotional, rather than physical.
We thought it would be under these two genre's: horror because we plan to carry the feeling of fear all the way through the story, the main character makes victims out of people but also he is a victim of his own actions. And psychological because he has something wrong with his head and his feelings towards the 3 girls and his thought process of how he treats the girls.

For our rough cut of the thriller opening, we need a series of shots relating to our animatic. These consist mostly of close-ups.
To shoot our many small flashy short shots, we will need many props, these are just a few that we think we are definatly going to use in our thriller, all of our props are important part of our thriller and the thriller convention of MISE EN SCENE....
A pair of rusty old scissors which will be shown cutting up negatives and pictures of the 3 girls.
