For my practical I am working with Katherine and Rachel. Ours will follow ideas from traditional film noirs, by involving murder, heavy lighting, conventional characters like the femme fatale in our opening title sequence.

Frame one: Shot focuses on the corner of a table where you see a pool of blood, slowly dripping down.
Frame two: The shot cuts to the lower leg of the table where we can see a puddle of blood that has been formed by the drops, and you can see an arm laying across the floor in the background.
Frame three: The camera is at a low angle, so the corpse's body is shown. A woman in heels steps over the body.
Frame four: The corpse is lying in the corner of the frame while the centered woman walks towards an open dorr, pulling her coat off a chair on her way. The light from the doorway creates bold silhouettes.
Frame five: A side profile of the woman is seen. The camera tracks her from that angle while she walks along a brick wall at night. Her breath can be seen against the cold.
Frame six: A low angle shot of the woman walking down the street from behind, so her shoes are visible, and in the background someone else's feet can be seen, when standing under a street lamp.
Frame seven: Side profile as the woman approaches the man (who has a larger build than her) and hugs him.
Frame eight: When they are hugging, the man slowly pulls out a knife from his sleeve and our opening title sequence will end.
Because of being filmed at night, there will be dark lighting and heavy shadows, which works well with the typical story. We aim to quickly build tension in our opening title sequence, which is unconventional as traditional noirs were generally slow paced.
