This is the basic outline for our Opening Sequence, showing a step by step account of what happens. As you can see, there have been some alterations to the original outline. These changes were made as a result of feedback from our treatment, the
Set in Jess’ bedroom with most shots in her room, only one is in the hall outside.
An alarm clock sounds signifying
Jess must wake up, she ignores this alarm and stays sleeping.
An hour later, banging on the door
by Alex to wake her up. Dialogue is heard from the other side of the door
about getting up, missing lectures etc.
He pushes open the door and pulls
the blankets off of Jess. She mumbles the words
The opening credits are going to be
kept very plain and simple, to reflect that Jess is a very jaded version of
herself at the start of the film. The main colours will be white and black
and placed general in the corners of the shots, so that they are neither
intrusive nor distracting for the audience. Our last shot is a long shot to distance Jess from everything, because of this, the main title will no longer be imposed onto a memorial card; but instead appear as the footage fades to black.

Struck By Lightning- Their use of plain whites means that the titles are
noticeable, but allow the audience to still focus on what is happening in the
sequence.
