Summary.
The opening of the story myself, Simon and Nick are hoping to achieve will conquer all the elements explained below, but features all the detail and effects required to create a detailed opening.
Basic Opening Plot:
It will start off in an interview with a detective and and a witness, having a summary of what happened, with the focus of flashbacks of what the witness seen. The flashbacks will be in black and white, allowing more of a realistic feel to the scene. After the first scene, of the murder happening, and showing the witness, escaping, this will start off the actually story, which is where we'll end the opening.
In the Kitchen:
It would be the victim getting attacked by the murderer, getting hit and killed, whilst there is a witness hidden inside a cupboard or under a table, there will be blood splatter, around the kitchen, the weapon dropping to the floor, and the murderer leaving the room. Whilst this moment happens, the witness will leave the hiding location, and check the body for a pulse, then leaving through the window, knocking something over, either a glass or cup, which causes the murderer to run after the witness, turning the witness into the victim, adding a spin to the story right from the start.
Fading out to turn into the credits, showing the '20th Century Films Presents...' etc, and the film studio. It will also have the section where it displays the starring cast.
How it fits into the genre:
Our opening will fit into the genre of Thriller, because it doesn't just tackle one area of genre, but overall hitting multiple areas with enthusiasm and suspense of a standard thriller movie.
It'll contain drama, a strong storyline, a crime which has been commited, and a plot which continues throughout the remainder of the film, with various lighting, flashbacks, objects and tools, also using correct props and costumes to fulfill the look of the part being played. Ontop of these effects and props, we'll add certain and distinct music of ambiance sounds to the scenes, to create an opening full of suspence and drama, placing the audience in the point-of-view of the witness.
Although the sound of the storyline does borderline Thriller/Horror, im certain we'll be able to contain it within the Thriller genre, whilst still providing a packed thriller of suspense, action, and drama.
