In preparation for my opening in the portfolio project I have been researching different opening techniques. I hope to incorporate these various techniques to engage my audience.
The first technique I have researched is an opening featuring a plot catalyst. This is when a specific item or event motivates the protagonist and influences the direction of the plot. In Star Wars a new hope Luke Skywalker only joins the resistance because his parents were killed.
The next opening technique i researched is the flip genre. This is when the opening portrays a different mood/genre compared to what the film actually is. An example of this would be in a horror film. The opening would portray a light hearted mode when in reality the film is very dark. This is a good technique to attract the audience and surprise them when the mood changes.
