The conventions of the opening 2 minutes of a feature length film...


  •  Establishes setting/character
  • Uses establishing shot and slow pace edits
  • Non diegetic sound
  • Creates enigma
We believe our idea incorporates all of these concepts. The establishing close ups of our character give time for the audience to be made aware of  the proposed characteristics and props shown in the shot. Hopefully they gain an understanding of the type of character he is. The use of slow motion, real time and reverse scenes creates a contrast in which the plot is developed: the audience are captivated and engrossed by his trail of thought. This therefore, creates enigma. The use of non diegetic sound within the fight scene induces the sense of adrenaline and apprehension which again, adds to the overall pace.
