Dream Works Production

For our opening we knew we wanted to use dream works as it was a well known production company and it suited the type of film we wanted to make which is a psychological thriller. All the dream works openings we found were quite upbeat and had a fairy tale sense to them with light hearted music as dream works also does cartoon films such as Shrek and Kung fu Panda.In the end we then found the opening to The Ring which has the same conventions as us; mysterious/horror/thriller and it was also a Dream Works production. Their opening was a lot spookier it had effects over the writing that looked like electricity and it matched the credits we used at the end of our opening sequence, the coloring was a lot darker so straight away you can tell its going to be a scary film. So we copied the Dream Works opening from The Ring and edited it into the beginning of our film.
