We got our ideas from all the research we have done on post apocalyptic films. Our main inspiration for the opening was "I am Legend", as it contains some great features that we want to incorporate into our opening. We added up the time of the opening, and we think that it will last at least around 2 minutes. When deciding on the shots we used, we tried to involve shots that conform to the conventions.
Our opening is about a girl who is a survivor of a pandemic. Scientists found the cure to the common cold in 2024 and vaccinated hundreds of thousand's of people. However the cure went wrong and instead of curing the people it created a virus spreading world wide. 1 year later Abbie (who is the protagonist) is the survivor of the apocalypse and doing her best to stay alive.
we choice to do it from a female teenagers POV because all post-apocalyptic films are from a mans prospective; we thought it would be good to do it from a different prospective. I thought that we could represent the social group of teenagers in a good manor, rather than the stereotype of today (hoodies). I thought that they could be portrayed as strong characters who will do anything to survive.
