Seven
My group plans to use Seven as our inspiration for the opening scene we create. We really liked the idea of highlighting certain items and props that are crucial to how the story unfolds. It gives the film an eerie feeling that we want to ensure is conveyed in our film. Even though it displays some credits on a black screen between shots, the tone and aesthetic of the film make it work, and we see the type of opening sequence. While the editing style is too advanced for us to replicate in our project, we really enjoyed the editing and found it entertaining and, in a way, informative.
The Black Phone
The credit scene in The Black Phone was one of my favorites. I like how they hinted at the problem in the plot in the first 5 seconds and continued to show the setting and the era. The viewers can easily grasp the concept of the film without having anything giving them exactly what happened and who created the problem. The credit sequence also gave off the movie aesthetic, and while it is not something that my group wants to include in our opening scene, we really like the aspect of that.
Terrifier 2
While we watched Terrifier 2 opening scene with the credits, we noticed that instead of having the credits appear on the screen as the scene progresses, the creators made the decision to cut in between the scenes and include a black screen with the credits. As a group, we learned that this way of including the credits was not the way to go. I felt that it made it seem very choppy, and it wasn't engaging. The opening scene is the most important because it is what grabs the audience's attention and then encourages them to continue watching the film.
