Alice and I decided to watch some opening scenes of Horror films today. 'Candyman' was the first one we decided to watch.
- Told a story at the beginning
- Death of girl from saying 'Candyman'
- Set at night - spooky - dark
- Screaming - Non-diagetic sounds
- Blood (Prop) coming through ceiling to show the genre of the film - horror
- speaking over the scene - explaining the story of the candyman
- quick cuts, not long.
This shows that the beginning of each film can go straight in to telling a story and don't need to have the title sequences straight away. This has influenced my opinions as they don't need to have sound and this will make me think more when I'm filming my opening scene.
Have you said "Candyman" 5 times?
