At first I had posted about what ideas I had for my thriller opening: Chemistry lab, people unconscience on the floor with people screaming aboutthe need to get up and out of the room.
Then, I had posted about an idea to change it slightly into a 'flashback' type situation where you see the characters doing whatever it was they were doing before 'The Incident' with a part where everything is fast-forwarded to what is currently happening, or an idea very similar to it.
In actuallity, I combined the two ideas slightly. I took the 'calm' part of the second idea and merged it with the chaos of the first idea to create a situation in which you see people mixing chemicals and measuring liquids into beakers then suddenly you see them on the ground in a poorly state. To liven up the enigma aspect of the thriller title sequence I am adding the sound effect of an explosion behind the movie title sequence. As the title appears word by word in descending order, and the font size gets bigger and bigger, loud noises and sounds will create the unseen feeling of a chemical explosion.
My teacher compared my movie ttile sequence to that of Saul Bass. I was honoured since without realising it, we had been studying his work seen in Vertigo, and North by Northwest which was specifically mentioned for my usage of lines and colour.
