These are some visual ideas of themes shots and props that will appear in my Thriller opening sequence.

The clown picture in the left top corner is the representation of the toys that I want to demonstrate through my opening sequence as although similar to the jack in the box toy shown, it portrays a creepier more dark side to what may seem innocent. The bright colours shown in both the clown image and the jack in the box toy are representative of the bright colours I want to use in my opening sequence in order to contrast with more dull surroundings such as the clothes that Rosey and William will wear, the dull lighting, and bed sheets etc, in order to emphasises their importance and relevance to the concept. The emphasis on them will create themes of mystery as bright colours and toys are initially associated with happiness and lighter themes, yet this is not the case.

The music notes represent the part that music will play in my opening sequence as the nursery rhymes will draw Rosey to the cupboard and get louder as she opens it. They will also be played every now and then throughout in order to raise suspicions.

The cupboard although different to the one I will be using from my filming location represents the idea of the contrast between the toys and more dull surroundings, and demonstrates the idea that things are not always what they seem. The cupboard seems dull and normal, yet conceals something opposing this.

The two images of hands over the face symbolise a similar shot that I will be using, point of view of Williams hands infront of his eyes, it also symbolises hiding which is an aspect of my opening sequence as William and Rosey are playing hide and seek.

The image of an eye represents the idea of being watched, as this is a feel I am aiming to achieve with my opening sequence with strange angles and shots thorough objects and in reflections.

The boy hiding under a bed is similar to what I want to re-create in my own media product as I have included William hiding under bed sheets in my planning.
