Changing the beginning

"MURDER IS LIKE MUSIC TO MY EARS"

These are the 'famous' words we have inserted into our film to confuse and disorientate the viewers. When I saw it actually built in to our film, it really gave it that professional looking effect. After much debating, we all agreed that it looked far to much like a trailer, especially by having "The Music Box" appear at the end. Then thinking about, no film that we had looked at in class, or ever seen, has black images with text on unless its a trailer. Although we didn't want to throw all their hard word away, we felt we all needed to go and fix it as it just didn't look right and we thought by going against the exam specification, we were putting ourselves at great risk of losing marks.

The montage of all the fast clips we deleted, lasted around 23 seconds as so we had to create something new and exciting to take its place, but being based on credits as we now had long enough to introduce some, with it still fitting in time with our music. We then inserted 4 black screens and introduced our credits as follows:

1) " A S.E.E.N Production" - S.E.E.N coming from our four initials is a unique film company we have made up in order to make our film look professional, yet still unique to our group at the same time.

2) We originally had "A Fox film" so we then changed it to "A Jackal Film" and almost mocking the 21st century fox productions as a Jackal is another similar animal. We changed it again mostly for individuality to our film and to avoid copyrighting issues.

All these clips individually lasted around 7-8 seconds and so fitted in time with the music perfectly when the black and white type writer is seen.

As we now had changed the ending, we wanted to still give off a eerie effect and so when the ballerina is shown panicking in the car park right at the end, and Billy just appearing behind her. It somehow gives the viewers a shiver down their spine as it is left to the viewers own imagination to what he does with her.
