THE BRIEF

To produce a title sequence/opening of a new film.

TRAPPED IN LOVE

Our created film has been called 'Trapped in Love' as the words trapped and love give of two genres, which are thriller and romance. The reason for our film getting this name was to give the literal meaning of it, which Leila is in love with Danny but he traps her. I believe that this name is rather suitable towards our film as it explains the whole film in three words.

In our title sequence we see how Danny and Leila get to know each other. During the scenes we get to see a murdered girl lying on the floor with bruises and cuts, tied to the floor. We then get the idea that Danny is the murderer as he has a picture taken with the dead girl, Laura. We then get lots of shots showing us Danny moving into a new house. A view of Leila is also available, which is seen when Danny walks up to her and chats her up. He then, in the evening knocks on her door, as his electricity is not working.

The sub-genre of the film is mystery thriller. This genre is introduced to the audience straight away as bright images appear on the screen, attracting the audience to viewing a dead girl. The main settings of the scenes of Danny are rather dark and his face is mostly cropped out, showing that he is an unpleasant person. The mentioned scenes and lighting of Danny let the audience know that something bad is going to come Leila's way, as he enters her house.
