We have done some audience research to see what films have good openings, what attracts people and what puts them off.

 

A film should grab you right from the start, it should introduce one of the story lines and should use catchy music, and good editing.

There should also be an element of suspense with in it.

There needs to be a sense that something really exciting is going to happen and that they do not want to stop watching it.

It puts people off when there is just a long section with titles, with nothing interesting happening but just names across a screen.

 

After looking at lots of websites, Jaws comes up as lots of the number 1 opening sequences, because it is gripping.
