Selected Genre:Horror Comedy

IntroductionIn this PowerPoint presentation we will be outlining the plan of our films opening title sequence.

Our selected film genre is thriller/ horror. We selected this genre as we thought it would give a good opportunity to use some specific camera shots which are used in thriller/ horror and have

fun at the same time.

Films we used for inspiration included Saw, The Ring and The Mist. We close these films as they fit into our thriller/horror genre and are quite well known.
