Portfolio project research

     For this assignment me and my partner are considering action and mystery. I am doing research on the recent success The Batman by Matt Reeves. This opening is regarded as great and I love the mysterious and gruel setting its sets for the film.

    The movie begins with dark shots, and the viewers having no clue what is happening. I really enjoyed this aspect as it requires the viewer to make their own assumption to what is going on. Classical music was implemented in this scene which works well with the gothic setting and mood. This opening really makes you feel like you are in the movie having no idea what is yet to come.

    This is just brainstorming but I would like to incorporate some of these elements in my opening. I think a dark mysterious yet action packed opening would be unique and fun to create. In the beginning of the film the protagonist is shown wearing all beat neutral colors riding a motorcycle. If possible I would like to incorporate a shot similar to this. By far my favorite thing from Matt Reeves opening the film was the main characters dark monologue played as we see the setting. This enhances the already dark mood and would work for what I am brainstorming. Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RREjIF0-lc is a link to this scene.
