While creating our opening scene we have been influenced by other opening horror scenes and what the director has used to show clearly that this genre is horror. The Conjuring was directed by James Wan and he is widely known for directing the horror films Saw And Insidious 2. We looked at the Conjuring as it is an extremely popular horror film that creates lots of tension at certain parts in the movie such as waiting for something to jump out unexpectedly creating suspense for the audience. This is important to us as this is something we would like to integrate in our film. The eerie music in The Conjuring opening scene give off a creepy atmosphere which is what we aim to do, as our setting is in a forest. The type of shots James uses are clever and effective as the long shots gives the setting away and shows the audience where the horror will take place. This helps create suspense as with the music building up the audience will know something is about to happen, making it more thrilling and exciting for them to watch.
