It psychologically challenges the conventions of a classical thriller product as the opening isn’t set in a dark area and isn’t placed in some wood in the middle of nowhere.
The audience has come in expecting a generic movie filled with the typical aspect of such a movie and they are greeted with the mind chalenging images.
The music to the opening sequence is dark and mysterious, this reflects in the shot choices as every shot changes from normality to obscurity. Each shot is cut using brain scans showing the mental element of the film, this has developed from the opening sequence of The Andromeda Strain mixed with the opening sequence of Seven. this showed that we looked at two opening sequences that are very obscured looking, the opening to Seven reveals basic ideas as to what the movie is about, and opening to the andromeda strain shows that the movie is about espionage and government secrets. This keeps to the conventions of a media thriller product.
The shots begins with beauty and then changes using light to more graphically challenging images, such as the computer mouse which changes to a dead mouse.
And the window in which we don’t know what to put on the green screen.
The idea of what our thriller has changed several times in the past weeks working on them. It started by bieng a psychological thriller based on the paranoid fears and a scitsophrenic’s mindset. The idea has now shifted to a time changing story incorperating hand written letters and showing time passing using the dead mouse, the melting ice cube and the hand written letters bieng incorperated into the sequence as opposed to the brain scans that we were using to show that it was a thriller based on the psycosocial behaviour.
