Looking at "Seven"

We found that in the lesson we would continue to look at the opening of Thriller films. The film "Seven" was a huge inspiration in terms of the opening credits as Charlotte and I plan to include some sort of Burn book in our opening scene, which was influenced by the film "Mean Girls". The whole point of the burn book is to write down thoughts that wouldn't necessarily be said in real life, due to the repercussions of bullying and abuse. We planned to include this in our opening scene so that the audience would be able to look into the characters mind without anything actually having to be said. The film "Seven" included flicking through the pages of a book, which we plan to incorporate into our own opening scene. We also thought about using the scratchy writing and special effects that is shown in the first two minutes of "Seven", alongside the footage of our character scribbling in the "Burn book".
