Opening shots ideas

Initially the opening idea would begin with the actors point of view which would show the audience the inside of the tent and then the camera would fade and black out, which creates a blinking effect which gives the idea that something has disturbed the man, however the audience isn't shown what is making the noise, which creates a mysterious opening.

However, whilst discussing other shots and ideas in class we came up with a more visually dramatic opening idea. We would follow the strings in different directions and then we would present the credits parallel to the string. The reason we thought this was a good opening was because it allows the audience to be aware of what is outside of the tent, rather than just starting straight inside the tent. We will still use the first idea above but will put it in after the following the strings and credits.
