Summary of Key points - "Watching: Beginnings"

In our class lesson we watched a programme produced by the BBC called watching beginnings, presented by Thomas Sutcliff. We took notes on this film to help us gain some good ideas for the opening of our film. Stated below are a few quotes that i found inspiring, and what these directors think of some film openings.

KEN LOACH - " The most precious moment of the film"

DANNY BOYLE - " An obligation to announce as much ambition as possible"

JOHN SCHLESINGER - " A good sharp shock"

THOMAS SUTCLIFF - " A good film opening must make the audience feel that they dont know nearly enough yet, and at the same time make sure it doesnt know to little"

DAVID FINCHERS - " Title sequence is prefigureing the events in the film - using titles to becime part of the story"
