Research

The next step was to research opening sequences from the horror genre. I specifically looked at the horror which included zombies, because as a group we all decided to specifiy in this part of the horror genre. For research of the genre 'Horror' i will google search popular top 10 horror movies for which people have suggested to watch. This reasearch will help to look at the best opening sequces of the most popular horror films.

Here is the link for the Top 10 Horror Movies that were listed.

From here it helped to then pick out three of the films which iv seen before; Jaw, The Shining and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
From here i can look at these opening sequences on YouTube and see what techniques are used to create a good horror film especially tension for our horror film to be a sucess.

Whiles watching JAWS in this movie they used a good source of music which helped to create tension which set the opening of the movie.
I also looked at the opening scene of the film ' The Shining.' I thought that this opening scene of this horror film was good as it was so simple but effective. They aswell as the Jaw used a good source of music which creates tension and makes the audience on edge for it being erie and also awkward.
For the Film, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre i found it interesting as i like the way they made the sounding of their sound as if it was a heart beat. with the beat it then shot in different camera shot to fit in with the beat. i found this really effective and good to relate to tension for horror.

Looking at these film openings helped to relate to not just zombie horror but other which create the right atmosphere in which we need to consider for our film to be a success.
