Questionnaire Regarding Audience

This is the questionnaire I made for an audience to fill out, before my partner and I had made our opening scene and below is the link to the website I made it on and where it can be filled in: https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/C64OU/

Titles For Our Opening Sequence

We have used After Effects to create the titles that will appear on our opening sequence. These titles include: the name of the director, the names of the main actors, the names of the producers and the title of the film. We will add these titles once we have organised the editing of the footage. 

Lighting Tests

In order to choose the best time to film our opening sequence, my partner and I experimented with different types of lighting outside - and what a character would like in each different lighting. We took pictures at different times of the day; when it was more light outside and when it got more dark. We felt that if we wanted to fulfil the best effect within our opening sequence, we should film when it's lighter outside in order for the audience to be able to see more detail clearly (e.g. character's facial expressions etc).  street lamp lighting  night time lighting  day-light lighting

Possible Locations

I think that these possible locations are suitable for my opening sequence because they are relatively isolated and they don't have much surrounding them other than a few houses. This will be effective in the sequence as it allows for an unsettling mood.
