Film Openings



I was looking through youtube at AS Media Studies film openings when i came across this video 'Torment'. I found this opening very integueing for various reasons, the editing effects in this were very good such as the colour changing from a high contrasted view to black and white at 0:50-0:57 and also the face appearing in the mirror at 1:27. The camera angles were very structured for the genre of the video and helped create tension throughout. However, the opening did not have quality transitions; and the subtitles were in very basic font which did not create much effect. The part that stood out to most was at 1:47 when the scratches were enhanced on her arm, this caught my eye as it was something that had happened at the beginning of the video which was seen to be in her dream, whereas now it had been portrayed as reality, which also built up more tension.
