G321 - Why are we re-making the opening of Se7en?

 Se7en

 

We chose to remake the opening of the film Se7en. We chose this film opening because even though it looks incredibly complicated we decided it would be a challenge for us to complete and if we could remake this opening well it should help us further when making our own final project. Our group decided that recreating a film opening which included as many elements as this one would require a lot of good planning which would make the filming and editing simpler and quicker as everything is mapped out for us already.
The fact that there are not any actors used in this opening (can only see a persons hands and inanimate objects) was also appealing to us as we would not have to worry about finding time to work with/include others and could just work on it whenever our group members are ready to do so. We spent a lot of time on the shot list and time line so as to have our remake as close to the original as possible. Focusing so much on planning means that we have had a lot of practise and experience which we believe will help us when making our own opening. We also as a group knew that we did not want to make a psychological thriller for our final project so they would not be similar.
