Opening titles credit sequence

I have analysed two opening title credit sequences in order to get a feel of how me and Harry shall use Credit titles in our film Third eye. I have picked Goodfellas and Panic room to analyse as both have quite different credit titles, Panic room is of the same genre as our opening sequene therefore is a decent fim to analyse.

Third eye - casting

For our cast we will only be using 3-4 charcters, alongside a few extras during certain scenes, other than that me and Harry will be handling pre production, filming and editing. we think it would be best for our psychological thriller to limit the amount of characters, so our audience can really identify and understand the characters in the film, as we are oinly doing an opening.
 Cast
 Main Character (suffering from hallucinations) - Kirsty Brown
Friend - Mel Knight
little girl - TBD

Third Eye - Classification

Classification

Our film ‘third eye’ will be classified under certificate 15. I think it should be certified 15 from the BBFC (British board of film classification), as there are mild elements of horror, some use of strong language, Mild drug reference, and elements of imitable behaviour included in our film.

Third Eye - Distribution

We have chosen Vertigo films for our distributing company as they are a British independent film company and distribute quite a varied selection of films.  We believe that with Vertigo films, they are more likely to accept the distribution of our film, as it is a British company (distributing Our British film) and also the fact it is an independent film company makes it more likely for them to distribute our film rather than use a big labelled distributor like working title or warner bros.  We have picked vertigo films specifically over other British independent distributors (for example warp films) as Vertigo seems to distribute more thriller/horror genre films (genres quite similar to our psychological thriller ‘third eye’), thus we think Vetigo would be more suitable than other Independent distributors.

psychological thriller - Storyboard

we will name our psychological thriller Third Eye

For our psychological Thriller we've decided to fix on an idea that the main hallucinations will be of a little girl. We beleive that this would be better then simply having hallucinations of a man, as we beleive that a little girl will appeal more to our targeted female audience. However, we will include other random hallucinations to reinforce the enigma of our opening.

First Scene - Firstly we will start off our film with a scene in a cafe between two female characters - the main character explains her worries of hallucinations to her friend.  She claims to have been seeing images of a small girl and other random visions; her friend comforts and supports her, they then both leave the cafe and head seperate ways.

Second Scene - Tracking of the main female character walking through the streets to her house , as shes walking through she keeps seeing her little girl and the same mysterious figure wherever she looks

Third scene - Female main character gets back to her house, shes trippin - keeps seeing the same little girl and occasionly a mysterious hooded man. She then runs up stairs and goes into her room slamming the door as she enters.

Fourth scene - She puts her back to the door and sighs in relief, then she sees a flash vision of the man at the window, she rushes towards the indow and draws the curtains. After she walks to her bed, she sits in bed contemplating, then finally after a while passes out.

Fifth Scene -  This will be our last full scene, and will be portrayed as a dream, with quick shots of her previous hallucinations will be used aswell as a couple of new ones. suddenly it will refer back to the main character suddenly awakens.
