I observed a lot of thriller opening sequences and what I found from most of them were that they normally introduce the production company first and what they are associated with. Next the actors and actress’ names and the supporting actors and actresses. Before this they tell you this by using the word ‘staring’ so you know that it is the names of the people in the film. Then I found out that they introduce the music director, this is important because music is the most key thing for a film, especially a thriller, as it will use a lot of BGM’s. Next was the director of photography.  This is the chief over the camera crews working on a film, television production or other live action piece and is responsible for achieving artistic and technical decisions related to the image.  This person is also important because their role is to maintain the camera shots/angles relating to the image, so if they mess up the whole scene would have to be done again. Next the producer’s name. This is either employed by a production company or independent, producers plan and coordinate various aspects of film production, such as selecting script, coordinating writing, directing and editing, and arranging financing. Next the person who wrote the script so in other words ‘the planner’. This is the person who writes the script, most of the time it is the director however, sometimes others write it and the director is different. Most of the time I found out that during the shooting stages most of the time the writer and director change up the script, if they find out that bits are missing or take stuff out. Then the editors, normally this is one person but thriller films have had up to 3 editors. The editor’s job is to edit the film if they find that stuff can be added or taken out after a scene has been completed.
