The opening sequence of a film must introduce questions and anticipation, the viewer will then want to carry on watching to find out what is going on.
This is a basic plan of what we are aiming to do.
- We will start with a extreme long shot of the house were we want the incident to begin.
- we will then have a jump cut to inside the house were the party is happening, this will be a mid/long shot showing the room and people inside.
- we will then have an extended planning shot of someone carrying a drink around and handing it to a girl.
- we will then cut to a shot of the girl saying thank-you.
- Next we will show a point of view shot of the girl struggling up the stairs and entering the bedroom where she collapses on the bed
- Next we will cut to a shot of the killer leaving the room and closing the door.
- some friends will then enter the room to find their friend dead and blood dripping into a glass.
- we will end our sequence with a shot of her hand carved with a number showing which position she was killed.

You need to start this by outlining what an opening sequence has to do to be successful and why it is so important to a film. You should end this section by explaining how your plans actually allow your opening to fulfil everything it has to. (Mrs D)
