My role for our film opening was to be the production designers so i was responsible for the location and the setting of the story. Also the costumes and props. I had been short of ideas and i needed to go into research of exactly what i can do to effectively fulfill the role of a production designer.

Directors - James Cameron
This is my brief research I did to find out more information about this particular director.
Foley Sounds - Videos to help
In order to use sound in the best way to get that realism in the opening sequence. We as a group have conducted research into helping us create foley sounds as thats a good feature to have when creating sounds such as footsteps, glass breaking or even a particular fight scenes.
Synopsis - Opening Scene
This would be our main idea of our narrative for our opening scene however it might have a few adjustments of improvements so it will give that professional look towards the audience but also following the narrative in the best way.
Initial Ideas - Story/Plot

| Since its a action genre - it would relate to conventional themes such as weapons, fights etc. |

To get more insight into our genre i wanted to find our exactly what we needed to make a good action film. Even though it wasn't as quite the same route that we were going as we do not have the budget and resources in order to create most of the effects of a large blockbuster i wanted to research the types of shots and mise en scene elements that i could incorporate into our film opening.

Iconography & Conventions
We would like to show you what does a action genre intake through its conventions. Here is a perfect example I have made:
Mood Board & Target Audience Profile
By doing a mood board it helps us generate ideas throughout the group also it creates key conventions used in a action film such as the terminator. These kind of images we think about and relate to as goes towards the action genre perspective. Conventions such as guns, kidnap, assassination, revenge etc. fall in the category because thats what audiences recognise as soon as its played on screen. Where as the genre comedy would connote to parties, teen bullying, cheerleaders and even alcohol. Furthermore these two groups of pictures make up our target audience and what will we target when going into production in creating our own opening scene.
Idents - 2 Examples
We felt as a group that this ident was not appropriate with films. As it more looks like its a youtube intro.
We chose this because its simple but elegant. But also it goes well with conventional films such as Dark Knight etc.

Opening Titles - Billing Order
When trying to do your opening everything needs to be precise and organised according to timing. So for that reason we chose to do a billing order so it would help us plan the scene properly and not make it longer than it should be. And from these 3 films we did a quick plan of the timeline of what is shown on the screen at what particular time. By doing so we follow the appropriate codes and conventions towards a film and so audiences wouldn't get confused of what is going on with the scene itself.
