 INSPIRATION!! 

    What inspires us!! Practically everything in life is based from some type of idea, concept, or experience! In our case we took inspiration from classic horror movies that shaped the way we created our film opening. For instance, the classic horror SCREAM! Scream has one of the most iconic film openings that we really loved and felt we had connected quickly to the movie. The whole classic girl home alone inspired us to create something similar but with our own twists and turns. The setting of a high class home we took definitely took inspiration from in this movie. 


Another movie we took inspiration from was The Shining (1980) the main killer “Here’s johnny!”. Even though you don’t physically see our killer in our film opening. The main killer in the shining was definitely a big inspiration of how we saw our main killer as a raging psychopath. That would have been shown later in the movie if we had finished it ourselves! 


The majority of the movie besides that we pieced together using our own imagination. And began building our characters based on what we saw fit! Although, these movies definitely *screamed* (I know this is corny) inspiration for our film opening.

We both knew he was the more intricate one which he used for his directing role. I did the acting as the main character, and he had a role as the killer's hand. When we began planning, we brainstormed and planned the story together. He even came up with the title sequence! I did the majority of the physical drawing out of story boarding, but the hard work of ideas was split between us. We had so many good ideas while brainstorming!     Moving on! When it came to directing he was the best! Since I was acting- the majority of the actual directing was done by Aden. He took the time to s...
