Group research into our genre

We watch a lot of different film openings and moved more towards the film openings that were a little bit different to the conventional mainstream film opening. By this is mean that we watched many different film openings that were all filmed in different ways using different methods. we watch the film Ratter, which was one of our main influences for what our idea was based around. we also gain inspiration from the film opening from 127 hours, this was because the film opening was a little different again as it started with screens that split into two and three. We liked these because we thought that we could combine these two ideas as we were influenced most by these, to result in a film opening with the shared ideas. This meant that we were able to gain a better understanding of what we wanted to see for our final piece and what we wanted to see as a final product. We were mainly inspired by Ratter because we liked the way that the story is based on modern day technology and how easy it is for someone to hack into your personal information and smart technology products such as Apple products. We liked the way that the whole film fits the convention of a mainstream film but was filmed using a whole new method. This was filming the whole film through a webcam of a computer, representing the hackers view of the unsuspecting people that he is watching.
