New Task: Opening two minutes of a film

In this task preparing for the opening credits of a film I want the genre to be a thriller. The beginning can be built up, for instance hearing the uncontrollable sounds in the far distance and background, or the sound of a swing moving as if someone has just jumped off it. It would have to be filmed at night in order to get the real effect of tension and atmosphere. The limitation of light means that you can never be entirely sure of what is lurking or who is about. Music could be played in the background to help build up good suspense as the names of the producers scroll down the screen. This will then begin to create the feeling of a lack of control and all the suspense. The filming would have to be effectively done in order to achieve all the tension and atmosphere. What I mean by this is that the camera shots are going to have to be very precise in order to capture the correct amount of light to shine on what objects that we want to be vaguely seen by our audience. Also we must ensure that we have good support of the camera and hold it properly as we do not want unnecessary blurring or distortion, we also must make sure that the pace either stays the same throughout the film or if it changes, it changes in the correct order and at the correct time. If this is not done properly then the film will loose the affect that we are trying to achieve, this is because the film being filmed at night time makes it a lot harder and not as simple to film as we are very limited in terms of visible sources.
