Throughout the period of time we have had with our project, decision making has been crucial to the completion and editing of our opening sequence. As a group, i believe that we worked well to overcome problems and when faced with crucial decisions, such as filming schedules, genre ideas, camera shot ideas etc. We all have tried hard to give our input to the group with suggestions, whether successful or not and ideas that we thought may work well. When filming, we regulary did the same shot from different angles and points of view to make sure all members of our group had their say and we could then analyse the shots, therefore choosing the best shots for that particular clip. This worked well as it gave a better collection of shots which we could choose from. Once we had filmed a few shots, ideas came naturally to us and we all new what we expected from the opening sequence. We also had a decsion to make with the music for our film. We decided to find some copyright free music that we believed would fit our film. When looking through the numerous amounts of music files and samples, we all had our say to which we thought was best, therfore narrowing down the selection for us. We also all agreed on the typography that we would include on our opening sequence. As a group, I believe that we worked well with minimal arguing as we were all on the same wave length of what we wanted to achieve with our opening sequence. This is why i think our group has had good success with our opening sequence.
