Our group decided to do some test shots before we started filming on location to make sure that we got a chance to experiment with the equipment and knew how we would frame some shots. In order to progress this footage further, we will shoot the shots with extreme close ups to make them more interestingly framed and making them fill the whole frame in order to get the intimidating effect that we wanted on the opening sequence.

Shooting Schedule.
Here is my group's shooting schedule, which will help us to organise and set up the filming process. This will let us know which cast are meant to be there in which scene, and with what settings or equipment.

Peer Assessment 2
This is the peer assessment for the planning part of our opening sequence on my blog. This will help me to identify and make the necessary changes to improve the grade of my blog.
Titles.
Due to the genre and concept of our film/opening sequence, me and my group have decided to use titles relevant to this. We agreed that 'graffiti' font will work effectively, moving over picture screen, as this was the most preferred in our questionnaire. The order of the casting crew jobs, names and actors will go in this order, using Sixth Sense as an example:
- Distribution company
- Names of the distributors 'present'
- Main actor
- Movie title
- 2nd most important actor
- List of the rest of the actors; from most important to the least
- Casting by..
- Costume designer..
- Music by..
- Edited by..
- Production designer..
- Director of photography..
- Executive producer..
- Producer..
- Written & Directed by..

Peer Assessment
This is the sheet that I received as my peer assessment of my research blog posts. This included our presentational skills, the opening sequences analysis and titles analysis e.g. the conventions for a successful opening sequence. For each section, we were assessed on what we've achieved so far and given a level. Our overall grades were then worked out, giving a final grade of what they believe our blog is at the time.

Audience Research Results
These pages show the results from my audience research. This questionnaire helped my group as now we have an idea of how long people would prefer the sequences to be, and whether we should have the titles over moving image or a black screen.

Sound
We have not yet decided on our final sounds, although have made note on some that we would like to include. These consist of:
- Heartbeat pounding
- Footsteps
- Background noise of an urban area containing sirens, traffic noises etc.
- Hyperbolic fighting sounds
Storyboards.
These are the initial storyboards my group has created to guide us with filming and editing. Storyboarding is essential so that when we come to filming the opening sequence, we know exactly what to do and how much to shoot.
