Genre choices.

 2/5/2025

Currently, I have two genres in mind that I plan to use when creating my film opening. Between action and horror, I'm not sure which to choose. For horror, I am leaning towards this side because when viewing horror films I really like the suspense and eerie feeling that is created, ad the sense of mystery that is left which makes you continue to watch the full movie. Well, as for the "eerie" feeling I mentioned I would have to stick to a really certain type of horror, as there are different genres in the horror genre itself. Something that I think would be a fun choice would be to do an opening that is similar to scream. The opening of the movies Scream are iconic and suspenseful. I am a bigger fan of movies like crime horror and mysteries, rather than paranormal and surreal genres. 

This image is an example of the genre of horror films that I take inspiration from.

The other genre that I am really considering is an action film, a movie that I enjoy watching a lot are the Michael Bay Transformers movies. Something that I enjoy when watching action movies is the intense opening as well as the usage of many special effects and props. Maybe an action movie that disregards the mass amount of CGI usage and is recreate able for me would be great.
