After some thought of looking at some kinds of genres and type of movies I want to make, I have decided what route I want to take. I am going to do a genre of science fiction. Specifically, my idea is to make a post-apocalyptic film. I am excited and interested in explore this type of genre where humanity falls apart due to some sort of virus, technology, or monster.
Post-apocalyptic movie openings usually start with many establishing and long shots of destruction and abandoned cities, making for a sort of tragic tone. Close-ups on dirty faces or objects can demonstrate how the people are struggling in the film. Using these examples of shots can establish a post-apocalyptic world, which has suspense and lets viewers see the catastrophe and its impact on humanity.
In order to gain more information on how to make a good film opening, I am going to look up movies of my specific genre, post-apocalyptic types, and analyze them by their shots and how they develop the scenes and purposes. After searching up some popular movies of my genre, I have decided to focus on three film openings. The movies are called "I am Legend" and "A quiet place". Although I am already familiar with these Im still going to look deeper into them.
